Nathan Joe Fike, 45, passed away on Friday, January 15, 2025, in Batesville, AR. He was born on November 22, 1979, in Batesville, AR, to Harold Fike and Sandy (Ball) Fike. Nathan enjoyed Jeeping and riding his four-wheeler. He loved his dogs. He could often be found in his recliner, watching racing and wrestling. Nathan was an avid hunter, enjoying bowhunting the most and hunted for bears, deer, and hogs. He was a self-proclaimed "Cheer Dad" and was always supporting his daughters in all that they did. Nathan loved Mountain Dew and sonic slushes and would often text his daughters "Slush Me" whenever he wanted them to bring him one. Above all else, he loved his family and was always goofing off and tormenting them in any way he could. Nathan was a beloved husband, dad, son, brother, and friend, who will be greatly missed by all those that loved him.
Nathan is survived by his wife of twenty-three years, Candace (Massey) Fike; daughters, Autum Fike and Brook Fike; parents, Harold Fike and Sandy (Ball) Fike; and brother, Anthony Fike.
