Nat was an amazingly gifted story teller, and he could hold you spellbound in several languages. He had style and a fantastic sense of humor. He left a legacy to be admired.

Grandpa Nat was a lot of fun when we were children. His pride for Jake was immeasurable. I am glad Jake got to know his great-grandfather. Grandpa once said "To be young when you're old you must first be old when you're young" He lived by this and took care of himself so that he could enjoy life as he aged. At 90 he and Jake rode the paddleboats together in Florida. How many teens and great-grandfathers get to do these kinds of activities together? Grandpa was a romantic and is now doing his favorite pasttime... dancing with Grandma, his forever love, as his many poems said. He had a full and fit 93 years. I am sure he was very grateful to you for being there to comfort and love him, Mom. I know that he loved you and is very proud of your strength and loyalty. May he always be remembered in our hearts.

I was Mr. Forgan's legal secretary in the late 1970's. He was a very skilled attorney and was very patient with his newly graduated secretary. To this day, each and every time I hear the term "myocardial infarction" I fondly remember Nathaniel J. Forgan, Esq.

Dear Bob and Pam
Our thoughts and sympathy are with you at this time of grief. Your father will be remembered fondly as a caring, kind and honorable man. May you be comforted and consoled with the memory of the gentleman he was.

The Greenwalds and the Forgans go back a long way(1950). We were all active in the formation of the Niles Township Jewish Congregation.
Nat was a gentleman of sensitivity, valor, and honesty. HE will never be forgotten. He was always well spoken and a credit to his profession and to his heritage.
