Nathaniel Aaron Straub

November 11, 1997 – April 12, 2017

Nathaniel was a kind, loving, caring, compassionate, outgoing, adventure seeking young man who loved life, family and friends.

The “N” on the square not only represents the “N” in Nathaniel but where he attended and graduated from High School – Northampton Class of 2016.

Nathaniel loved baseball and grew up playing the game. He played first base and sometimes pitcher ( not his favorite position). He played for Lehigh Township and Northampton High School.

The Eagles symbol is for his favorite football team, who would go on to win the super bowl the year of Nathaniel’s passing.

I say they won because they had their #1 angel on their side.

The Joshua Tree patch represents where Nathaniel worked as an arbor apprentice. He received certificates in tree climbing and trimming. He was working and studying towards becoming a certified arborist.

Through the Gift of Life, Nathaniel was able to donate his kidneys, bone, tissue, and corneas.

Even though he no longer is here on earth he will live on through others and always in our hearts.
