Those who knew him during those formative years remember a kind-hearted, steady presence — someone who was both reliable and quietly generous. He carried those qualities with him throughout his life, earning respect not only as a friend and classmate but also as a dedicated worker.
Over the years, Nathan worked as a hi-lo driver at several local manufacturers, including Ameriform, KL Industries, Five Peaks, and Extrusion Tech.
