I remember that Nathan use to greet me in the mornings for a while when I first entered school. He’d smile and say hi and let me sit with him and his friends when I had no where to go and helped me feel welcome. I know I wasn’t to terribly close to him but he made me feel happy and accepted. I’m glad that I got to share even a small part of my life with him . I hope his family knows they raised a son who accomplished a lot in life. 

I remember one time you came over and we went to the dollar tree and got snacks. then we went all the way upstairs and watched scary movies all night. Then you would stay for days at a time. You will always be in our heart and memories.

Nathan jumped right in from the first time he came to our home and became our family . I loved how funny you were and how you always made my girls feel so loved by you . I remember every time you stayed I had to make Tacos so u could eat 6 or more and be so happy. Just getting to be a small part of your life was such a blessing . The days of sitting on the floor in the living room watching y’all play among us and watch movies and eat junk food and listening to y’all laugh till 5 am are behind us but I will remember them and smile each time as those were truly blessed moments with a person who was infectious with smiles and kindness . 

Heaven has gained an angel that will light up the sky each day with style and laughter … RIP sweet Boy ! 

There are so many wonderful things I can say about my best friend . I have no clue where to begin. There was never a dull moment with you from meeting at Walmart while you worked to spending hours laughing at our sleepovers to late night FaceTime  that turn into us sleeping on the phone to so many long walks and great food together that always ended too soon and in you taking some clothing of mine or my sisters and me stealing your hoodies. No matter the situation you listened and help me through sarcasm and laughter. To the nights when I would be crying alone and you would call and make it all better and tell me I’m worth more . These days will never leave and will forever live on !! I love you Nate 

Nathan was an amazing sweet person. I remember one time me and Nathan went to Kentucky Kingdom and we had so much fun together. Also one time Nathan came over to my house and stayed for the weekend. Me and Nathan had so much fun. When he stayed the night a my house me and Nathan would get a blanket and slide down my the stairs. He was so sweet and caring. Love you brother Rest in peace.

Nathan has to be the most kindest, caring, funniest person I have ever met. He was ALWAYS there when I needed someone from the second I met him. I met Nathan in my P.E. class freshman year. After he got yelled at by the teacher for just sitting on the bleachers, I went up to him and said he could join my group which he did. 
I remember telling Nathan about problems I was having with people after school instead of shrugging it off and not doing anything he would stay after school with me or would make sure I wasn't alone before or after school. I remember the summer before sophomore year and the summer before junior year he would come over only planning to stay a night and then ended up staying for like a week or 2 the boy just wouldnt leave. I was okay with that though. I miss all the times we got fake married and fake divorced even had fake children he even tricked me into signing this really crappy marriage certificate he made sophomore year. Ill never forget him and the big part hes played in my life I love him so much and he knew that I made sure he knew how much I appreciated him. All the sleep overs all the times we went to gsa and walked to starbucks after and the Lan party's we went to at school where we just played the game sims all night. Ill miss obsessing about Billie Eilish and Isaac Dunbar with him. Ill miss him. All we can do is let him live on through our memories. 

Nathan was such a good friend to me. He was such a great listener I feel like I could tell him anything and he would give me good advice. I would talk to him all the time about anything and everything. He was an amazing person! Rest In Peace my dear friend. 

Where do I start. You were one of the kindest souls that’ll ever grace this Earth. You were the best listener and advice giver. You were always there when I needed to vent or a shoulder to cry on. I’ll always remember our walks to Bowen and the ice cream shop. When I shadowed you at work for a week. When we would watch Happy Tree Friends and go on COD gaming sprees. I’ll always cherish all the laughs we shared and you’ll always be my person, and my twinflame. You are my soulmate and I love you so much always and forever 

Nathan was a brilliant kind hearted sweet kid. I wasn’t that close to him, but knew him. And, I can tell that he was him self. He didn’t care what other people thought about him, he was caring and always wanted to be there for anyone. Even if it was just for a minute to get them to laugh. We got to hang out a few time cause we were friends with each other’s friends. My favorite memory was when we went iceskating for my birthday at iceland. Or when we would just go swim. Rest well Nate you’ll always be in our hearts and your smile will always be missed.
