Nate Mlyniec

I taught Nate one thing or another for each of his three years at CT. I loved him then. I love him now. I don't think of Nate without seeing his fantastic smile. He was so much fun to have in class because I could play with him and enjoy his wonderful sense of humor and know that when it was time to settle down and work, that's what he would do.

Dear Vicky,
I think of you and your dear family, and grieve with you every day.

Dear Vicky, Paul and Sam,
Our deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved Nate.

I've known Nate since he was in kindergarten. He was a good friend of my little brother and in my dad's boy scout troop. I didn't know him very well but what I did know was great. He was a sweet, smart kid and lived life to the fullest. My heart goes out to Paul, Vicki and Sam. May God be with you in your time of sorrow.

I can't imagine the pain that your family is going through. The loss of a child is something no one should have to deal with. My only hope is that the wonderful memories of you son will help to heal your heart.

Vicky, I'm so very sorry for your immense loss. I will be thinking of you and your family. Lots of love,
Tara

Perhaps part of his legacy can be that we all take a...

My heart is absolutely broken for you. Please know that we are thinking of you and want to send hugs, prayers, good wishes, and much love to your family.

All my sympathies to Vicky, Paul and Sam from a friend from the UCLA days.
