Rest in Peace, to an amazing man I once knew. Thank you Nate, for changing my life, and living out such a legacy of selflessness and service to the people of Uganda. I will always remember my time with you, Innocent, Christo, and the roadies in Boston. I remember when you came to MassArt and…

And even though I miss you, and am filled with sadness and anger, I know you are with our Lord, returned home, and I can’t help but rejoice over the legacy you have left behind. You have blazed a trail, ignited nations, and reminded all of us how fortunate we are to be part of such an...
