In Memory of Nate Batko, Husband of Tanya

Hello,

A close friend of mine has recently suffered an unimaginable loss with the passing of her husband. Tanya and her late husband Nate had been together for over 15 years. For everyone who knew him, this will leave an unfillable hole in their lives.

For friends of Nate, you know him as a joyful guy who loved martial arts and gaming, who worked hard and cared for his family; For coworkers of Tanya's and mine, you know her as an intelligent, diligent and dependable paramedic.

From everyone from his Bothwell and sheet metal families, "Nate was a wonderful co-worker. Those who knew him for a day and those who knew him for years will remember a man who would give anyone the shirt off his back if they needed help. A genuine guy who was always smiling and joking. He was one of the hardest working guys you've ever met. He was one of a kind, and will remain in our hearts and thoughts forever."

Now, numerous and unexpected expenses place a significant financial burden on his bereaving wife. With a heavy heart, I ask anyone who can to donate in order to help lighten this load. Any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read and donate. All proceeds go directly to Tanya.

From the eulogy,

"It is with immense sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of our Nate the Great!

He was an amazing man, who was loved by many. He was a husband, a son, a brother, the fun uncle and an all around good guy! He was a man of few words, but the one with all the answers. He was an avid gamer, a martial artist, a musician (in his past life), a real life GI Joe, the hardest worker, and the "master of all things". He made his mark in this world and we will forever cherish the time that we were able to spend with him. We will forever miss our Nate!"

Edit - Due to the overwhelming support, I've raised the limit if others want to continue donating. Tanya is extremely appreciative to all of you!
