President Nash will always be loved and remembered. As Sydney Australia Mission President he moved all around New South Wales, and my husband, Douglas Howard, was one of his Counselors.

President Nash was a wonderful Mission President. He showed love, kindness, and compassion to everyone, and was always there for me. I loved him like a father. I have no doubt he is hard at work on the other side, reunited with family and friends busy doing the Lord's work. God be with you til we meet again my friend.

How fortunate we were to have Brent Nash as our Stake President, Temple President, and friend for many years. His kindness, humor, and spiritual leadership touched us and lifted us. We remember.

Such a beautiful man. I was incredibly blessed to have him baptise me into the Church way back in 1990, in Sydney. Not only that but we were graced by a beautiful musical number - there was not a dry eye in the room.
A truely loving man who will always be remembered fondly in my heart. ❤
