My deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved mother and mentor. My own was the same, deep reverence for all life so that apple didn’t fall far. No words can help the terrible void but she lives on via your work Praying for you at this rough time. 🙏🏻💔

Very sorry for this huge loss — she’s a great Human — and lovely, too — brings up my own Mom's memories — still have my Cats’ ashes : undecided as to where to scatter

I'm so sorry for your loss Nathan. She obviously taught you well and you are an amazing torch bearer for her. I love that she will rest among so many little souls that she cared for. I hope that memories of her will bring peace to your heart💖

Goodbye sweet mom. May all the animals she saved and served follow her to a feathered, scaled and furred animal bliss.

Sending you love through all the digital noise. To say goodbye is something we're never ready to do with a parent. Just know that your heart hurts because it loved deeply. And her legacy will continue on through you. I'm sure she was immensely proud of you, and what a passionate, intelligent man you are. Best wishes, always.
