Nathan was a grad student during my sophomore year at Hollins, and I'll always remember his sweet, wise, vulnerable soul. I still treasure an amazing CD of gorgeous songs he compiled for me towards the end of that year, and I loved communicating with him since that time. Nathan was such a special person, and he obviously gave his big heart to the world. My sympathy goes out to his family and all else who loved him. I'm so very sorry to learn of this huge loss.
