Still thinking of you and your song .. Kansas dust in the wind

December 13, 2011

Dust in the Wind...every time I hear it I think of you. I found your old Journey cd today... its been here for almost 15 years. I thought about you always playing that song for that one summer a million years ago when we were kids. I thought about the days when sneaking out of the house to meet up at the S turn was so much fun. You are missed.

Its funny that as I'm writing this the new kid rock song "all summer long" just came on. Which reminds me so much of Mishnock! My boyfriend is giving me the best gift I could ever want this Saturday, hes taking me to get a tattoo for you and your dad. As you know I've been designing for almost 4years now and I finally have it perfect! Two dragons flys around a water lilly. I'm so excited! I still miss you so much, I know your here but its just not the same. I have the most vidid dreams that I go to your house to see your mom and you walk through the front door and have no idea why we're so happy to see you, that this whole thing was just one big missunderstanding and you were never really gone. love you, Amanda.

Nate I can't believe it's been so long. I think about you all the time and I try to remember all of the good times... Like hanging out with you, Bobby, and Erica watching tv or just walking around. I'll never forget the day we actually realized we were cousings hanging at my house putting together the peices on who was related to who and how. I truely regret not being able to spend more time together and not taking you up on the invites to hang out. Say hi to my dad for me and drink a beer together as you look down on all of us. I miss you and love you.

Its mothers day, Natalie came by and gave this gift and at the same time I opened it the song wishing you were here came on my phone rang and it came up incoming Nate. It was your Mom.I didnt tell you Kathy because I know how hard today is for you.On the gift Natalie gave me was a saying.It was a windchime the remembrance bell, Angels are intermediaries between Heaven and ,earth symbolizing our souls passage to the starry heavens,and stars represent spirts of those who have passed on,shimmering in the night sky.As Mother Nature's breath, the wind, gives ringing voice to this remembrance bell, may it bring to mind not only the spirits who have ascended to the evening galaxies but also the timeless continuities of life flowing from our ancestors through us to our descendants.Also as I was writing this I had a grateful dead tape on and ripple came on who knows me knows what that means. You were here today .I love you and miss you deeply.Happy Mothers Day Kathy your very loved and in our thoughts.This is also in remembrance of my Father who has just passed.Love you Cindy

Nathan,

i had my baby january the 13th(oppisite of your day 31st) and your mom says he resembles you. i named hin Evan Anthony Nathan after you and i was just really missing you latly. i was given this bag of clothes for the baby and as i was talking about your family i picked up this yellow shirt that had this faded tag on the back and i squinted my eyes to read it and sure enough it said Nathan. i know you were there with me at that moment and i know that was your little way of showing me your a guirdian angel. I sometimes just say to myself its just a wait I'll see you again. i pretend your not gone so it doesn't hurt as much. I can only imagine how much your mom and dad miss you i have only had Evan for almost 7 weeks now and he has 100% of my heart and more. i want you to know that i miss you and love you and i have been thinking of you. your cousin forever-laura

p.s. remember your christmas vactions you used to spend at my house and we used to pull all nighters lol i miss that

If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine and my tunes were played on the harp unstrung.would you hear my voice come though the music would you hold it near as it were your own.Its a hand me down the thoughts are broken perhaps there better left unsung.I dont know dont really care let there be song to fill the air.Ripple in still water when there is no pebble tossed nor wind to blow.Reach out you hand if your cup be empty if your cup is full my it be again.Let it be known there is a fountain that was not made by the hands of man.There is a road no simple highway between the dawn and the dark of night and if you go no one my follow that path is for your steps alone.If you to chose to lead must follow but if you fall you fall alone.If you should stand then whos to guide you. If I knew the way I would take you home. I cant belive its 6 months.You are with us every day and missed more than words could say. Love Cindy

I wanted to share my last 4th of July experience because of one person it is my favorite time. Its funny how somebody can impact you so deeply and change your life forever. Suddenly you realize it is the simple things that matter and that you hold close to your heart. I had just moved into my moms camper and befriended Nate. From the moment we met we were two peas in a pod and chilled out everyday. We tied the little raft to the fish hunter and off we went on lake mishnock equipped with tims wind up radio. It was my mom and joe in the fish hunter and me and nate in the little raft. Joe tooled us around the lake. The fireworks began all around our heads in every direction. It was the most beautiful peaceful place to be. We decided we wanted some tunes and you wouldn't believe it the only station that came in was playing the grateful dead. Everything was perfect the music our sorroundings but most of all the company. Later we went back to my moms and listened to everyone sing and play guitar around the fire. I regret not being in mishnock this fourth of july, comprimise called. But as I watched the fireworks on johnsons pond I found myself closing my eyes trying to get back to that special place... next to the warmth of nate. It may be a simple memory but its one of my favorite ones. He will always be in my heart around this time of year and be in all of ours forever. When my son grows up and is old enough to understand the meaning of good people I will share with him all of my nathan black experiences. Ill let him know that we didn't just honor him with nate in his name but what that name means to me. Frindship, peace, beauty, and to love every aspect of life. I'm going to sign off by saying that his beautiful soul and warmth is with all of us. nate we miss you in the flesh and our good times are dedicated to you. See you in my dreams, love your twin natalie

mom

nate,well today is Mothers Day and although you were not here,i still felt you with me in spirit.There are few days in my life that really stand out and two i will never forget.the day god brought you into the world and gave you to me and then the day he he took you away.Nathan not a minute goes by that you are not in my thoughts, i think of you always and miss you so much.Iknow you are in a better place and with people that love you looking down on all of us ,and until we are together again, i love and miss you very very much

April 13, 2005

Nate,

I love you and miss you, i think about you everyday and always come to the same conclusion that it just isn't fair. you always had a smile on your face and managed to passed it on to everyone around you. Growing up you were the closest thing i had to a brother and were always there for me. you gave me so many great childhood memories i will always cherish thoughs. strawberry park is going to be so weird without you there this year, every year we've had such good memories there and it just wont ever be the same... i know you're up there looking down on us in your favorite tie dye rocking out and smiling down on all of your friends and family wishing we wouldnt cry but we do, because we all love you so much.

Theres just so much i wish i could have told you but never had the chance to, hopefully you know now but i can never be sure. you impacted everyones life you came across in such a good way and we will always love, cherish and miss you. see you when i get there. Rest in peace.

Love Always

Mandy

Kathy and John

i know that theres nothing that can take away the pain you're feeling but i hope you know that you're not alone and that all of your family and friends are here for you, and will always keep nate alive through our memories. Stay strong, its what he would want.

love you guys

Natalie O'Connor

February 13, 2005

I didn't know Nate for long but the length of time in knowing someone is not a factor in a real friendship. Since the first day we spent together Nate had welcomed me with open arms, never judging and never expecting. He had some of the best values of a person I've ever known. Its unfortunate that good people are hard to come by, and even more unfortunate to where words cannot explain, when they are taken away. I'm thankful for the memories I have of him they were some of the best days of my life. We'll miss him always. John + Kathy your in my thoughts everyday, thank you for bringing such a special person in this world. My heart goes out to all in the family, I can't imagine what your goin through. Stay strong because Nate would want you to enjoy the rest of your life, and when the time comes you will be together again.

On behalf of Nathan's Family, I want to thank everyone who has expressed their heartfelt condolences. It is great to see how many people loved Nate and how many hearts this great kid touched. Nathan was one of my closest friends and I know he will be miss dearly. I ask that everyone continue to share their thoughts and feelings because we have read and appreciated everything everyone has written and we look forward to reading more of the beautiful things everyone has to say. We have been truly touched by all of those who have writtten in to let us know how they feel. Nate was a great person with a heart of gold he will truly be missed but when you think of Nate please do not cry just remember that he will always be in our hearts and think of all the great times you've had with him and smile because he's smiling down on all of us. Thank you all again.

Dear John and Kathy,

I am so very sorry for the tragedy that has befallen you, your family, and all of us who knew Nate. I only wish I could have seen him one more time before he left us, I became pregnant at the beginning of last year so I never really got to hang out with a lot of my friends and Nate was one of those friends I couldnt party with anymore. He will never ever be forgotten and he will always have a special place in our hearts. Although you may not see the wisdom in these words but everything happens for a reason whether it be known to us or not. The good die young and he was one of the best. I offer you my deepest sympathies and if there is anything at all I could do for you or your family please dont hesitate to ask. You do know that he is rocking out up there with all of the great musicians he loved and having a blast, he is also smiling down upon us all and wishing we would stop crying, let him go, and remember the great times we had with him. May he rest in peace, and I also wish for peace to dwell in your heart from the knowledge that you raised a beautiful and loving young man who was such a wonderful irreplaceable addition to this world however brief his time was here. Nate Dog was one of a kind and will always be alive in our hearts.

The memory is what we have to light the path of our own foolish ways, his smile will always be there to warm our hearts when we feel cold. Nates soul will lie peacfully among the wildflowers as long as he knows that we will keep smiling knowing he is always looking ahead for us.

rest now, our love

will always shine

brighter than any

star for you.

Uncle John, Aunt Kathy and Kevin,

I am so sorry for your loss. I hate the fact that I never got to know Nathan as he grew up. In my mind he will always be the sweet little boy with the infectious smile I remember from when I lived there. I am sure he is still that same sweet boy for you, also.

I know nothing I can say will make you feel better, but know that I love you all and always will. I wish that I could be there with you for support if you needed it. All I can offer, however, is my prayers, and my hope that you can be strong for one another.

Uncle John, please take care of yourself and be well. Maybe Nathan will be able to pay my brother a visit and they will both watch over us. :)

Love you all,

Hilary, Dwayne and Justin

We only met Nate a few times over the summer at Natalie, Cindy and Joe's house but he left quite an impression on us. We were looking forward to hanging out around the fire again this summer and maybe even cruising around Lake Mishnock on the rafts again. We will always have the image of him walking around with his dog Bud right by his side. I wish we could have gotten to know him better. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

When my mother died you were there to wipe my tears, when uncle frank died we cried and joked about his great life and when you died I sat alone and wished you were here because there is so much i forgot to tell you about you. No one can ever replace days at the pond or camping trips or our long walks and hiding your mothers keys so you can just stay a little longer. You were more to me than a cousin we grew up knowing that, there was more than that. Alot of great childhood memories were with you and that is something that we will always have. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU NATHAN BLACK
