I can only echo the praise of those above. It is a priviledge to know a man like Nate and I will always consider him a true friend. If we could all exemplify the characteristics of Nate and his love for his community and its people. My prayers are with you and your family during this time and pray that God gives you the strength you need to overcome. Thanks for all you have done and hopefully will be able to do again.

Mr. Zeno:
We are praying for you during this difficult time in your life. May God give peace, comfort and strength for today and everyday.
Thank you for being such a fine, upstanding citizen. The world would be so much better if everyone lived up to your standards.

Looks like it is unanimous. Zeno is a fine man, a very good
educator and public official. He has been on our church prayer list for several months now, and a lot of persons are giving their individual prayers for him.

Nate Zeno was my jury representative, but most importantly, he has served ALL of us. I have a small list of people I define as personifying integrity and he is on it. His other hallmarks aee intelligence, dignity and good example. His leadership on the JPPJ is appreciated and will be missed.
