I'm grateful for the contributions made at Alcorn by Nate. We can be confident that God's presence and power will extend even beyond this life just as King David was in Psalm (116:9-11). Therefore my heart is glad, my glory rejoiced; my flesh also rest in hope. For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption. You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. May the family find comfort in the Lord.

Not seeing your smile, or listening to the stories of our youth and the laughter that accompanied them or a call to say we'll be heading that way...! 1970, our freshman year, the beginning of our friendship. Forty-eight years of memories we made. I'll cherish and keep them near and dear. Nate you'll be missed, but never forgotten. RIP my brother, my friend, my classmate!
