Welcome… This web page is dedicated
to the life and love of Nathaniel Jacob Tills whose life was cut
short by the devastating disease Leukemia. Nathaniel was 16-Years
old when he went to be with the Lord on November 1, 2003 from complications
of this dreaded disease. Although Nathaniel is gone he will always
be remembered by anyone who had the pleasure of having this young
man in their life. When people die young it seems that people often
make the comment “It always happens to the good ones”.
Well, in this case, that can not be overstated. This was evident
by all the friends from all walks of life who attended his wake
and funeral. I often said to my wife during this time that I can
only hope to have as many friends show up at my wake. It was obvious
that Nathaniel was loved and respected by many people. I am so proud
of him that he was able to touch so many people in that way. I
welcome you to spend some time on this site to get to know Nathaniel
and remember him. I encourage you to read the touching Eulogy
by Nathaniel's father Darryl. It is the story of Nathaniel's
16 years on earth. Please sign the guestbook
to share any thoughts you might have about Nathaniel as well as
offer words of support, prayer and encouragement for his family.
Also, we would like to keep this site open to other people who may
have something they would like to have posted on the site. If you
have any pictures, letters, etc that you would like posted please
feel free to E-MAIL me at mike@cedgeonline.com
and I will get them up on the site. I think the following poem captures the essence of the life and love of our beloved Nathaniel. |

| "If
Tears Could Build A Stairway" If tears could build a stairway And memories were a lane We would walk right up to heaven And bring you back again. No farewell words were spoken No time to say goodbye You were gone before we knew it And only God knows why. Our hearts still ache in sadness And secret tears still flow What it meant to lose you No one can ever know. But now we know you want us To mourn for you no more To remember all the happy times Life still has much in store. Since you'll never be forgotten We pledge to you today A hallowed place within our hearts Is where you'll always stay. |
