Remembering Nate

Nate was one of the good guys. Although he was only in my life for a few years, he made a lasting impression. His love for jazz, blues, and people was our bond. His unique sense of humor was the same as mine. We shared many adventures. I will always remember Nate as my cousin from a removed family.
