Nathan Mahone. Our Grandson.

My name is Enrique Padilla. On May 31, 21. Nathan Mahon’s life tragically came to an end. 

Nathan meet a group of friends in the early morning hours at a local park, in Salem, Oregon. Some how the driver of the car, “his girlfriend”, ran my grandson over pinning Him under the vehicle, causing he’s death. 

Salem Police are investigating his death. Needless to say we are all in shock. Vanessa Valencia, “my daughter”, is devastated and beside her self with grief. Asking herself all the questions a parent asks God, “why”. 

No Mother, Father, nor Grandparent should ever have to very  their children. I have to believe that God in all his wisdom, called Nathan home at the tender age of 15 for a darn good reason that we simply don’t understand. 

It pains me to ask donations but I must. If your able or will to help family with the cost of the funeral services. Vanessa Valencia,  as well as all our other family members, would be for eternally grateful.

Sincerely, thank you.

Enrique & Cynthia Padilla.
