Words can not express the loss I feel for Jamie. He was truly one of a kind! I remember we were in middle school together @ eagle. We rode the same buss and the high school kids picked on us. Jamie and I would sit at the front and talk about rodeo. I will never forget his bright smile and curly hair. Although I am sad Jamie is not with us, I know he is in a great place, flying high in the clouds and learning new things. I will think of him often and when ever I see a crop duster or a sunset. Jamie loved his family so much and he watches over you now! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. If you ever need anything, even if it’s just to buy you a Pepsi and talk, let me know

I am praying for your family. Even though I only met Jamie a couple times through Shane and Michelle, I was always impressed by what a great guy he was. He truly was a gem that will be sorely missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May our heavenly and loving Father hold you in His hands, offering you the comfort that only He can. God Bless you all!

Howard, Wendy, Tina and family:
We are honored to have known Jamie. Sandy loved being his 7th grade Science Teacher.
Today at his memorial we were edified and uplifted. The tribute for Jamie was excellent. Thank you for being such great parents. Thank you for living in the Star area long enough so that we could get to know you and him.
Our prayers go out to you and this time of mourning and loss. May God be with you until you meet Jamie again; I promise you when you do, it will be grand and joyous.
Kindest Regards,
John & Sandy Embury

IMPRESSIONS OF A PILOT
Flight is freedom in its purest form,
To dance with the clouds which follow a storm;
To roll and glide, to wheel and spin,
To feel the joy that swells within;
To leave the earth with its troubles and fly,
And know the warmth of a clear spring sky;
Then back to earth at the end of a day,
Released from the tensions which melted away.
Should my end come while I am in flight,
Whether brightest day or darkest night;
Spare me your pity and shrug off the pain,
Secure in the knowledge that I'd do it again;
For each of us is created to die,
And within me I know,
I was born to fly.

Dear Nau family, I was so saddened to hear the news. I knew Jamie as the curly-headed, dimple-cheeked little boy in my first grade class years ago. He left an impression on me then as I'm sure he has to countless others through the years. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I remember jamie as a baby--even before. When I announced I was pregnant at Eh-Capa practice, Jamie's Mom said she knew she was pregnant, too, because she only needed to hear the word. So my baby girl Julie and Wendy's baby boy Jamie toddled together and were best buddies for a precious few years. My most heartfelt condolences and prayers to Wendy, Howard, Nanci, Tami, Tina, Bob Bean and all of you who have lost a beautiful person. He is with God and at your sides at the same time.

To the Nau family:
We send our deepest condolences. We did not know your son personally, but we have heard much about Brydon and Jamie through the years, as our son, Jonathan, also worked for Valley Air. Jonathan thinks alot of both your boys, and was very sad to hear of your family's great loss. Please know that our prayers are with your family. May the Lord comfort you at this time.

Howard & Wendy,
Jamie and I didn't start to get close till we both started working at Valley Air. Uncle Gary introduced us while I was staying with him. Jamie gave me my first flyin lesson for my birthday and was always after me for not taking more lessons. And I never quiet understood why my uncle asked James to give me a lesson but I'm so glad he did. Jamie was such a great person and I'm so very thankful I got the chance to know him like I did. All I can do is remember the good times. If you ever need anything, don't hesitate ask. You two are especially in my thoughts and prayers along with all Jamie's family and friends.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know Jamie but I went to school with his brother Andy. It was a tragic loss when we lost Andy. He was a very good friend of mine. Now, I pray that they are together watching over their family and can now be their guardian angels. You are truly in my prayers.

I only had the privilege of being around Jamie a few times. His roping partner is my God Son, Shane Smith, so I had privilege of being around him at family functions. His shy smile always melted my heart and I will never forget his curly hair. Howard and Wendy raised a very wonderful and delighful young man. It was an honor to have him pass thru my life if only for just a few short times. I have known Wendy for a very long time and I know what joy he brought
her and the whole family. May God be with them as they say good-bye for now. We all know that we will see Jamie again. My love and prayers to the Nau family!

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your precious son. Although I did not know him, my heart aches for each of you. I cannot imagine the loss that you are feeling. I live out at Melba, and the first time that I heard a crop duster this spring, my eyes welled up with tears, because my childood neighbor, and friend Gary would fly out here, and lots of times let me know that it was him, and fly over our home. I miss him greatly, and now that your son is in heaven with him, I do hope that you can draw comfort that. You, and your family are in our prayers, and thoughts.
The skies over Melba have held a very distinct quietness this week... May the Lord give you strength and hope during this very difficult time for all of you.
