For several decades, he continued to entertain audiences with country music.

His greatest joy included spending time with his grandchildren and working on his 40-acre ranch in rural Roseville where he raised cattle, collected John Deere tractors and held an annual October gathering at his own pumpkin patch.

His was an annual supporter of the junior livestock auctions at the Placer County Fair and Gold Country Fair. Nat was also active as a 4-H project leader, in the Sons of Italy, and was a member of the Dry Creek Joint Elementary School Board of Trustees.
