Not sure what to say?

When Nathan´s notice popped up in my mailbox today, I was once more reminded how fragile life is. Sue, Bob and Lauren, you are in my thoughts today as I say a prayer for Nathan. My heart is broken for you and I hope that you are doing as well as can be expected. Seven years is not a long time when it comes to such a bright light that Nathan was being gone. Love, Teri

For me, with Nathan and his family there were a lot of good Scouting memories. Good memories can never be forgotten. He and his family will forever be in my heart.

Nate, it's your Auntie Jean. I am so sorry that I had to get to know you through these other heart-broken people. What an amazing guy you turned out to be! I am so sorry that, like your Auntie Lisa, I never knew you as the amazing man being described here by people all around the world. I know you are OK now, and at peace.

Dear Sue and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God Bess you, Sharon Moritz

I had just heard the news today of your incredible loss, Sue. I always loved to hear the updates of Nathan and Lauren and watch you light up when talking about your kids. Hannah, Tyler, and I will be on my knees praying for your family. I am so sorry.

I had recently worked with Nathan in Korea: He was a terrific fellow teacher who always helped keep the experience light-hearted--a breath of fresh air from the consequential culture shock which, at times, accompanies a journey like teaching in Asia.

Family and friends have my deepest condolences.

Nate was a student of mine, and I am deeply saddened by the news of his death. My condolences go out to his family and many friends.

He was my best friend and definitely the greatest person I've ever met in my entire life. We had made so many memories together till he went back to the States after one year in Korea. He was incredibly brilliant, warm-hearted and considerate. Now...I'm in a state of shock and still can't believe it...cannot understand why this tragedy happened to you.....and won't forever.. I only want it to ba a horrible but vanishing as if by magic nightmare... I miss you so bad at this moment...from the...
