To Nathaniel's family, our heartfelt sympathy for your loss of Nate in this life and for the trials he went through. May you be blessed with the assured hope that you will see him again when we are called home.
Jenna, Dan and Laurie and family, My deepest condolences for your loss. The angels were singing their praise when Nate entered the Heavenly Gates. He was a true servant of our Lord Jesus Christ. I will hold memories of him during Northside Calvary's Awana days when he was full of life amidst the children. He will be deeply missed by many he has touched over the years.
Dan and Laurie our deepest condolences in the passing of Nate. Gary and I praying for all of you. Nate is a very special young man to us and our days of serving as Awana JV leaders together. He touched many hearts.
Dan, to you and your family, please accept my condolences.
To the Brasch Family, We are so very sorry for your loss. Sounds like Nathaniel grew up to be very wonderful young man. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Stan and Brenda Matson
I'm so very sad for your earthly loss. . . If I knew how, I would attach the song by Keith and Kristen Getty, "My Dwelling Place." I still cherish the songs you gave me as a gift 6 1/2 years ago. . . Loving you long distance, dear sister in Christ, and all your beautiful (and funny) children. Big hug, Cathy Harvey
My sincere condolence to the entire Brasch family. I had the opportunity to get to know Nate while working on Troutland Rescue and Menominee Rescue. He was be missed.
Dear Jenna and All of Nate's Family & Friends,
It is so ironic that scripture tells us how Heaven rejoices when a saint arrives there, while here on earth there is pain and sorrow. May you all feel and know you are wrapped tight in God's everlasting arms as you entrust your beloved husband, father, son, brother, cousin, uncle, friend, to eternal life with Him, looking forward to a grand reunion one day! Prayers for the coming days and years that God will continue to outshine Himself in His grand extravagant ways to meet all of your needs,
Love, Aunt Jinny & Family
So very Sorry. He truly was a good and faithful servant. May God hold you in his loving arms. He was the calm when Troutland came to take my husband to the hospital. I am a better person for having known Nate. Renae Worden
My sincere condolence to the entire Brasch family. I never knew Nathan, but work close with Jared his brother. I feel a small bond through Jared and can only express my thoughts and prayers. Peace be with Randy P
