Not sure what to say?

Ruth and family-

I was soooo sorry to read about Nate's passing. He was always ready to chat and was very pleasant to work with. He was good at debating too, as I recall! I have thought about you two over the years, and I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to Nate. Please take care of yourselves.

As a current deer biologist for New York State DEC, my colleagues and I owe much to Nate for paving the way for modern deer management in New York State.

My condolences to his friends and family.
