To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Oh, Nate. A good guy, and a great kid to coach in Little League. He was a key member of our team, not just because he was a star. He was a leader, one who demonstrated unwavering commitment to excel for the other kids. I won't forget our time with this fine young man. Rest in peace.
My deepest sympathy and thoughts go to Nate's family and loved ones.

You were one of the best friends I could ask for, and at one time an amazing boyfriend. You will be remembered by many. Rest in peace, and make up for the lost time with your dad. Thank you for all you've done for me. <3

As an addict in recovery, my heart goes out to anyone that knew Nathan. I never knew Nathan but reading about him I felt a oneness both in the despair that accompanies active addiction and the sorrow in watching a young man's life end.

I went to High school with Nate. Even though we weren't good friends he was still a great person. I can't belive the last time I saw him was a year ago at another High school friends services a year ago. The last time we ever talked. My thoughts are with Nate's family he was a great kid.

For such a time as this, it was time for you to be brought home to your dad, and your Heavenly Father. I was an honor and a privilege to walk you through these last days of your journey here on earth. There are some awesome memories that will forever be cherished by those whose lives you touched and came in contact with. Just today, when I mentioned your name, a woman said.....what a great kid, such a gentle spirited young man. That's way to pass from one life to eternity, Nate. Blessings and prayers to Kathy, Ed, Ashley & Heather....may God peace that passes all understanding be with each of you. And may your relationships with each other grow stronger, and you find the value in each other in walking through the pain of your loss. May Nate's spirit always be close to your hearts! Love you guys<3
