Nathaniel Lamar Lewis ("Nate Dogg", "Natty Boo"), 37, a native of Prairieville, Louisiana was born to the union of Ivory Lewis and the late Johnny Lewis. He received his wings on the evening of Saturday, July 18, 2020 surrounded by family and friends. Nathaniel was born at Earl K. Long Hospital in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and was considered the "miracle baby" because the doctors did not give him long to live. But God blessed his mother (father) and family with 37 years of joy and happiness. Nathaniel loved everybody and everybody loved him.

Ms. Ivory and Family’,
My deepest condolences to you and your family as we all mourn the loss of Nat. As his teacher at DTHS, he made days brighter than they ever could have been. I am a better person having known such a sweet and innocent soul. I still think and and talk often of Nat! A photo of his at graduation remains framed in my classroom. I assure you, he will never be forgotten. I know that he’s been given his wings and he’s our angel in heaven. Praying for all of you during this difficult time. Love and prayers to you all!

Nate gave all who knew him
pure joy and much laughter! Of such, that will ring in our hearts and minds as long as life remains. He loved praising God in dance, and could play the tambourine like no other. He loved unconstitutionally; everyone was in some way related to him. He words choices would bring a smile or laughter: "get your mind right", "look a here", "that's my wife", "don't touch my stuff", and so many more, . We celebrated his 37th Birthday last month. I asked, "Nate, what do you want for your birthday"? He responded, "Cologne and Money" .
