Count yourself lucky...if you had the pleasure of working with Nigel...a passionate caring role model...who excelled in every aspect of his life. Yesterday, I found out he passed away. I had the pleasure of working with Nigel...recruiting and placing professionals in healthcare, management, and technology. Beyond kicking ass everyday...we had a ton of calls about family, friends, politics, sports...and especially Liverpool Soccer.
10 Kickass Things I Loved About Nigel McClurg
- He saved my life...when COVID hit...and the economy went South...Nigel was able to get business and we found talented professionals for clients (who entrusted Nigel).
- Regardless of how hard we worked on searches, Nigel never complained about not getting a hire...always working his hardest regardless of the result.
- I loved the way Nigel talked about his wife Nadyne, his daughter, and grand daughter; he was so energized and passionate about family.
- Nigel loved recruiting, and helping people land sweet jobs. Nigel was such a sweet professional, went out of his way to help people find employment.
- Whenever Nigel went on vacation, he would send me pictures (going on a helicopter and skiing with friends), and pictures of Maui too.
- Nigel, loved the simplest pleasures surfing in the morning before work...there used to be a hole in the wall sandwich shop, he took me there once, when I drove down to Newport Beach.
- Nigel inspired me to follow his favorite team Liverpool...and we talked about soccer every other day...the Good...the Bad...and the Ugly too.
- Nigel and I could talk, agree, and disagree about politics, without being disrespectful...2 mature men talking about the Future of America.
- Nigel talked me into driving from Santa Monica to OC at midnight to watch Rugby World Cup..."The All Blacks..." vs England...live at a bar where men and women from every country shared a pint...and enjoyed the action on TV.
- Nigel was simply sweet...he could tell stories...and teach values...I am sure everyone that met him felt lucky to call him a friend...a rare camaraderie among men and women!
"I will dearly miss Nigel...everyday...and with everyone...he embodied Kickass & Party for Good!"
