I will forever remember Nathan as the adventurous, fun loving and creative young man he was. As a young boy he was an avid climber and I remember one occassion in particular he and my son climbed a tree at Wilcox Park during the Summer Pops. He called down from the top of that tree “Hey Mom, look at me!” with that huge smile on his face! It was hard not to laugh while telling him to get down. He will be sorely missed by all those he touched with his kind and generous soul. With all my heart I believe Nathan is smiling down from the top of that tree today and always.

In loving memory of an amazingly funny, and wonderful person. Aunty and Uncle will love you and miss you always Nate. Keep Pop Pop and Nana entertained until we are all together again.
