Nate will live on

Our dear, loving son, Nathan Rhoades, sadly passed away in a tragic car accident on 1/20/2022. He was pronounced brain dead and is still on life support at Ventura County Medical Center, in preparation for his organ donation. We will be donating all of his organs (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, eyes, intestines, bone marrow, etc.) to help enhance and/or save the lives of up to 100 people.  Although we have insurance, we anticipate out-of-pocket medical expenses we will incur, in light of the length of his stay and the efforts to keep his body functioning so that his organs are viable for transplant.

Nate was an amazing human who touched so many people's lives. We have heard from so many people who have told us how he helped them, friends who have shared that they could always talk to Nate, how he listened and gave such amazing support in times of need. He was also so funny and hilarious, making so many laugh. Nate was an amazing motivator who loved to help people get into fitness and live healthier lives as a personal trainer at Gold's Gym.

We will be having a Celebration of Life for anyone who would like to join us, on March 19th, Sat at Soule Park in Ojai. Please reach out to me, his mother, Heidi at [phone redacted] if you would like to share about Nate or get more info on the event.

Thank you for your support and contributions to help continue Nate's legacy. Love, Larry and Heidi Rhoades
