I've been speaking with Nate's sister and anyone feeling like they'd like to attend Nate's celebration of life are more than welcome to do so. People can arrive any time after 1:00pm and the pig roast will be ready around 4:00pm.
If you attend please take along a chair and there will be plenty of room for tents should you be traveling and like to stay. (they're also encouraging folks to stay if they're intending to be drinking--BYOB please)

Saturday 24th September 1:00pm (VT time)
Please PM me for an address if you do decide to go.

I really wish I could go celebrate Nate with his family. It hurts my heart that I just can't make it.:down::(
My thoughts will definitely be with his family and loved ones. Please thank them for the invitation, Flake. :) Send them more doses of SKMB love!!:love_heart::love_heart:

...please pass along my love most of all, but also my thanks...I am cash poor in the extreme right now due to family issues...but my spirit will most certainly be with them...

Thank you, Flake for the update and information. Travel would be a might far for me, but my spirit will be with the family.

Thank-you for keeping us up on all this. My thoughts will be with the family.

His sister thanked everyone for those messages, she said it is really helping to hear that he was loved by so many. It is comforting to the family to know that they're not alone in their grief...
Thank you, Flake for all you have done to give his family and girlfriend some degree of comfort. I am glad they have now met Nate's cyber family and know we loved him as much they did. And we all feel the pain of his loss.

Deb, I just thought you might like to know that Nate's family has used this image advertising his Celebration of Life gathering. ♥

Thanks for telling me. :) It's a really good picture of him. One of the best ones I have. It's the Nate I knew and it makes me smile every time I see it.
He and I were picking on my niece right before I took that one. We had a great time that night. Stayed up until about 4am just chatting. Well, and drinking beer.:D I miss him so much.
