It was a very sad day for me when i heard the news of Nathans passing. I just want to say he came into anyone and everyones lives and made a statement in which anyone that met him would never forget him. I've thought about all our fun times when we were younger laughing and joking. I'll always remember the big smile that he had to share with everyone around. All the pow-wows that we played at and the family gatherings we had together. Nathan you will be missed greatly and are loved by many people. To his family i am deeply sorry for your lost.

Dear James Family,
I am saddened by the loss of your son Nathan.
I am Monica, the niece of Dave and Vida Khow. I had lived with them in Tuba City from 1983 to 1984.
I may have met and gotten to know your extended family briefly.
You may have seen me at your niece's Jennifer Khow's wedding in Arizona a few years back.
I just happened to find out about the sad news by chance. Today I was looking on the Internet for some information about my aunt Vida's Holistic health and wellness program, and I came upon this entry about your son.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I will always remember Tuba City, my time with Auntie, Uncle, Jennifer, and Michael.
Love,
Monica

We have known your family and your support since our Nathan has been dancing. Through these many, many years of performances and get togethers we have only talked with your Nathan briefly. This does not mean even through distantly knowing him we did not know him or care. We are still there to care and feel the pain in which you are enduring today. We are deeply saddened by your loss and no words can heel the pain you are feeling now. You have supported my family since my son Nathan & Trina has been dancing I feel the support you have given to my family is the support you need from us now. Our prayers go out to you and your family. Jayden, Trina sends her condolences to you and feels very saddened by this tragedy. She is there to support you and feels for you.

Nathan and I attended Elementary through High School together. Even though we lost touch throughout the years he was a very good friend to me. It was just last year I saw him at a concert and he came behind me and gave me a big bear hug, I will treasure that dearly now. My sympathy goes out to his family. Nathan you will be greatly missed.

At this time no words can really be comforting. A while back this lady came to me and my family in our time of grieving and she what she said was a great comfort to us. {She said we all sit down with our Creator before we get here and lay out, our plan of life. We live up to that plan the best that we, know how, once we are here on earth. Sometimes life throws us a hard ball and we don't know how to handle it and we don't want to anyone to know how we feel. That is the time the Creator and us are the closest.}
