About Nate's Glow
Nate wasn't like the rest of us. He had special needs, but he balanced that with special gifts. Instead of being ego-centric, he was love-centric. Can you imagine that type of distinction? His gifts didn't stop there. He was serious and laser-focused on finding ways to ease the suffering of other people. Through his family, he will still accomplish that goal.
​
Losing a child will change a man. As you have seen from my book, I am not messing around. After he was found, I knelt over him and I made a promise, a sacred father's vow - The world will know of Nate, and through this knowing, he can still have positive impact on our lives. His real goals and dreams will be accomplished on this planet. I think most fathers would do this if they were in my situation.
​
To do this, I must create an organization with specific aims and components. One of which is to eliminate the asinine epidemic of bullying. We will accomplish this through speeches, conferences, and presentations to deliver to schools and workplaces. No other family needs to know this loss.
​
Also, we are quite compelled to help prevent suicides. We know the crushing pain and unfortunately, we know it very well. We also know some things we could have and should have done. We know some things Nate could have and should have done. We will lead the front against this worse of worsts. One of the ways we are doing that is by asking people to take the I Pull Through Pledge.
​
Nate wanted to save people. He wanted to ease their suffering. He wanted to improve their mental, physical, and spiritual health. He will now do that through the Nate's Glow organization. We will provide coaching services, the podcast, social media outreach, and the Nate's Glow Volunteer Search and Rescue team.
​
He had personal goals as well. He loved trees, nature, and hiking. He wanted to, and did, maintain and improve biking and hiking trails. He wanted to plant forests, create parks for people to find peace in, and he wanted to start a ministry centered on his message of love, faith, and hope. His family will make his dreams come true. What a wonderful honor that is for us.
