Nathan was born July 26, 1977, in Slayton, Minn., to Jack and Becky Juelsgaard. Nate grew up in Elk Horn, Iowa, until his freshman year of high school when his family moved to Treynor, Iowa. He graduated from Treynor High in 1996 and then attended Iowa Western Community College and Wayne State College. Nate married Amy (Behrens) on June 17th, 2000. He has worked for Doll Distributing for the past 9 years as a sales rep and account manager.

We will remember Nate as a wonderful husband, father, and friend, his love of the Iowa Hawkeyes, golfing and his humor and his smile. As Nate's sister put it, Nate was a big deal.

Not sure what to say?

Amy,
I just saw on the news last night of the passing of Nate. I am so sorry for your loss. Don't know if you remember me but my daughter Abby took dance lessons with Faith at Ms. Kays. Don't know what the right words are to say at this difficult time.

Amy, you have our deepest sympathy, also to Faith, Jackson, Alleyna, and the rest of your families. We can not imagine what you are all going through at this time.

We were so shocked today when we received your brother's call telling us about Nate.

Only God can give you comfort at this time, - lean on Him - He is sufficient!

Think on the memories that you had together and never forget the love he had for all of you.

Skip, Betty, and Becky...

Dearest Amy, Faith, Jack, and Eleyna--Our hearts are broken and there are no words of comfort that we can offer. You will always be in our prayers and,--dreams of a happier day for all of you. Blessings and prayers--Tom and Rosemary Kelsay and family

Kevin, Becky and families - we care about what you are going through. May God give you a glimmer of heaven to bring you peace.
