In Memory of Nat - Help Nancy with Medical Bills

Donation protected
Nat Sprague, known to most as Nat the Gunsmith, went to be with Jesus on August 19th, 2024 after a short, but courageous battle with cancer.

Nat and his wife, Nancy, have owned Ozarks Gunsmithing in Ozark, Missouri for the past 15 years. Nat was passionate about restoring old guns, bringing them back to their former glory. He loved to take his time, focusing on the intricate details and craftsmanship. Nat considered gunsmithing to be his ministry; he loved talking with customers and hearing their stories.

Nat loved the gun shop and the time he spent there, but he loved his family more. He adored Nancy more every day and was immensely proud of his two children.

Nat was diagnosed with highly aggressive cancer only three short weeks before he passed. His health declined rapidly, and it wasn't long before hospice was called in.

Nat began feeling unwell in 2022 and doctors were unable to make a definitive diagnosis at the time. This led to a long journey of medical tests, appointments, frustrations, and many thousands of dollars in bills.

Nat leaves behind many treasured friends and family members, including his wife of 45 years, Nancy, and two grown children, Cameron and Whitney.

Each person that met Nat was better for having known him. He will forever be missed. It is the hope that this fundraiser helps his family to pay off the medical bills that were accrued.
