Nathaniel “Nathan” James White, age 42, in his last breath, raised his arms to Heaven and was carried peacefully into paradise by the loving hands of his Savior, Jesus Christ, who took away all his pain.
Born on January 6, 1983, in Reno, Nevada, he was the son of Gregory and Sue White, and is preceded in death by his grandparents, Kenneth and Ramona Files, and Jesse James White and Mary Sue Smith.
Nathan graduated from Vilonia High School and later earned his Electrical Journeyman License. Everyone who knew him loved him; his gentle spirit and kind heart were among his greatest traits. His favorite pastime was playing basketball with his beloved son, Ray Ray.
Nathan is survived by his daughter, Carlie Nikole White, his son, Raylan James White, his parents, Greg and Sue White, his sister, Britni Gummer, and his brother, Joshua White.
