Condolences for

I know my words are not adequate to express the sorrow I feel for the loss of Nate. The loss of a child is truly heartbreaking with no pain more far reaching. The only thing that runs deeper in our hearts is the love and the memories of Nate. I know that I was blessed to have known Nate, being one of his primary nurses both in PICU and Peds Universal Care Unit (P8). I was blessed by Nate’s gentle spirit, big heart, inviting personality, enormous smiles and contagious laughter. I know that this was the hallmark of truly wonderful loving parents and family. I hope that midst the sorrow you can all find comfort in knowing that Nate’s life gave everyone who met him memories to beautiful to forget. Nate was an inspiration to those around him and a very special young man who will never be forgotten. Nate will remain in our hearts forever.

Jackie, Todd and family, I was sad to hear of Nate's illness and passing. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. It was a privilege to be one of his nurses over the years and I am a better nurse and person for knowing him and all of you. I remember fondly how he would laugh (mostly at Grandma Marilyn) when she would tell him to stop his fussing. You couldn't help but to smile when he did. He could light up a room. I pray that you feel God's loving arms around you as you grieve and that fond memories bring you comfort. I'm sorry I can't be there to tell you in person but I am in GA with my daughter. Sending hugs!

Our son Samuel went to school with Nathaniel for awhile. We are very sorry to hear about Nathaniel. I am sure he will be greatly missed.

I regret, I never had the honor of meeting your wonderful Nathan, but I will share how much he meant to our Sarah, her life was touched by his beautiful spirit and her heart was broken by his tragic passing, her time with him was short, but his impact on her and the rest of the staff @ Onalaska high was huge, God bless you now and for all the days to come and know that Nathan is held in the hands of God and is perfectly utterly safe

Nate was the one person to light up a room and make you feel good. My sympathy goes out to his family. Rest in peace Nate.

My sincerest condolences to you at this time. Nate was a great kid who always had a smile for everyone. He was a very special person to his family and to everyone who knew him. Cherish your memories of him and how he enriched your lives.

Jackie, Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
