howdy, my deepest and most sincere condolences for the loss you suffer. it was only half an hour ago that i found Nathan's writings of his visit to my part of the country tho i'm certain that i met him as he was passing thru, "riding his bicycle in his underwear". he was a good man in my estimation.

To the family of Nathan Winters,
I am shocked to read this news I am very sorry for your tremendous loss. May you have lifted hearts knowing Nathan touched many. I was interviewed by him during his bicycle journey and enjoyed meeting him that afternoon and hearing about some of his adventures. I am glad he was able to farm with his family as he obviously believed in this. He was polite and courteous during his visit and interview, and had thoughtful, interesting questions. I am glad he lived his dreams. An unique young man.
Blessings and peace to you all in your healing and remembering journeys,
and in your lives.
Sincerely, Meagen Kresge
