Nathaniel was a great person and will be deeply missed. I often reflect back on our many memories together throughout highschool, and the many roadtrips together. I had the privilege of introducing him to his lovely wife Katy. I've also considered Nathaniel like a brother and my heart goes out to his family and friends.
