Dear Julia,
I just learned of your brother's passing and wanted to express my deepest sympathies to you and all of your extended family. Dr. Nash was an awesome example of what following Jesus is like; he was a great mentor and respected professor of mine when I was a student at CWC. I'm sure he had a very positive effect on thousands of students over the years. I appreciate his influence in my life and am sure he leaves a hole in many hearts. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

CSM Nash, a man with many titles and accomplishments, was my father's ( MG William A Gantt Jr. ) Command CSM at the 108th TNG Command as mentioned. I know he loved my father and they spoke many times through the years. CSM Nash was a great man and a great Patriot for America! I am glad I knew him and it was a privilege to receive his wisdom through the years. The Gantt family is very sorry for your loss of this great man.

Dr. Nash was an enthusiastic and involved member of the board at Anderson-Oconee-Pickens Mental Health. Over the years I was able to appreciate his kindness and the wisdom he possessed as he approached the challenges we faced. He was always an advocate for the citizens of Pickens County and will be greatly missed. On a personal note he was also an encourager for my father Glenn. Dad was a father of two in the late 60s when he returned to complete his college degree in education. Even though Dad was older, Dr. Nash encouraged and mentored him as student as Dad completed his degree and later a career as an educator. My prayers are for the family during the loss of the man you knew as a husband, father, and grandfather but to us a friend and advocate.

I was a student in Dr, Nash's classes at SWU in the 1980s. He was a wonderful professor and a great man. His love for his family, friends, church, country, college, and students should be celebrated. He will be greatly missed.

Bob's loss is great not only to the family but also to friends and SWU colleagues. We pray for comfort for Bob's family and friends. Bob's many contributions to SWU, to the military, to ALIVE, and other organizations. Bob was generous and caring in so many ways. An interesting fact is before PowerPoints, Bob was an artist in classes drawing many biological figures and appreciated by his students.
