I was saddened to hear of Nat’s passing but my next thought was that he is now together with Delia-his best friend as he called her. Nat was such a friend and comfort to me in my early sobriety and I looked forward to seeing him at mass on Friday mornings at St. Phillips. A man of few words shows much wisdom and Nat was a shining example of this. He taught me the importance of communication and compromise in any human relationship, and he lived what he believed. May we all hold the best of him in us and live it as well as he did. Zippity Do Da Zippity Day-the world is better because of you, dear Nat.
