Sorry to hear of Nick Torkos’ passing. TNT was a very popular brand in its day and I believe was also the brand that PGA Tour veteran, Dave Barr, favoured. Nick was a part of a great Canadian team. I offer sympathy to his family and close friends.
Condolences to Nick Torkos family. He was a true gentleman and huge influence in the “world of golf”. RIP Nick.
He was a kind generous man and a true gentlemen..
He will be sorely missed!
Nick was one of the friendliest competitors you could ask for. He was always welcoming and had no problem sharing even the smallest details of his business. A great ambassador for golf.
Nick was a true ambassador for the game. Always created great relationships with many golf operators, putting the product in our shop was a no product of a classy gentleman being good to the people that crossed his path.
My condolences to the entire family.
