Nina, I have thought of you and Nat as role models for my relationship with my wife. I loved to see your care for one another. I could imagine Nat being excited every time you walked in the door at the end of the day. Today was a wonderful celebration of a loving man. Love, Adam Levin

I am sorry to hear of Nat's death. I have fond memories of him from my Northwestern days, I lived in Northbrook then, and on occasion we drove home together. I still remember our conversations. You must have so many memories of him, and I hope they bring you solace at this painful time.
