One of the most outstanding qualities about Nate was his smile. His smile could warm a heart. His smile was contagious. His smile could be seen up to his eyes. His smile could brighten a gloomy day. What a sweet cousin he was to the girls (although they often would say uncle Nate). It's said that when you lose a loved one, you gain an angel. This is true when speaking of Nate. Sis, sissy, and the rest of the family...my heart and prayers go out to you.

Nathan was a part of my family for many years through my son Mike. He always called me grandma Cookie even after my son and Terri broke up. He always told me he loved me and I always told him I loved him because I did and I always will. He told by grandson not long before he left this world that he loved my son and I know my son always loved Nate and Danielle and Terri. I had to be the one to tell him about Nate and he cried his eyes out. Nate we love you and will miss you so much. My heart goes out to Terri and the rest of the family. May God give you peace. Go with the Angels Nate until we meet again

I only got to hang out with Nathan twice. In that short time, we talked about everything: Life, love, God, Pain. I didn't get to know Nathan gribble very well. But I know one thing. That man had a heart that was more genuine than anything I've ever seen. Let his heart live through all of us. Rest in peace, my friend. You are dearly missed.
