Nathaniel "Nathan" Austin Chavez
August 13th, 2000 - June 24th, 2025
Beloved Nathaniel "Nathan" Austin Chavez of Loveland, Colorado passed away on June 24, 2025. Nathaniel was born on August 13, 2000 in Loveland, Colorado. He is the son of Shirley and Michael Chavez.
Nathaniel was raised in Loveland, Colorado. He attended schools in both Loveland and Berthoud and graduated in Berthoud. He also attended CSU in Fort Collins. In his youth, Nathaniel enjoyed participating in gymnastics, baseball, soccer, football, tennis, swimming, and Boy Scouts. At age 14, Nathaniel began volunteering at House of Neighborly Service in Loveland. He said he learned a lot about people, and he was glad he was a volunteer there. Nathaniel enjoyed listening to music, often going to musical performances throughout the Northern Colorado area. He began guitar lessons in 4th grade and enjoyed it so much he entered his school's talent program only 2 months after starting guitar lessons. His guitar instructor said Nathaniel had a "gifted ear" for learning music and he was one of a few of his students asked to play their guitar at the Rialto for a music program with other students learning guitar in the area. He continued playing his guitar in the Jazz Band at Berthoud High School. Nathaniel enjoyed performing in school plays. His first role was the lead character of Santa Claus in 5th grade, and he continued to perform in all plays throughout middle school and high school. He also liked to sing and was in choir for several years in high school. Nathaniel enjoyed being in the mountains and camping and hiking-something he often did with his parents as a youth. He also enjoyed traveling to new sites and places and revisiting places he once traveled to with his parents. Nathaniel's humor will be missed as well as his smile. While growing up, and throughout his life, many teachers, parents, and acquaintances commented how polite, kind, and well-mannered he was and said he was always asking questions and eager to learn. Nathaniel attended Foundations Church. He started a Bible study last summer and more recently he was looking into volunteering to lead a small group at Foundations Church. Nathaniel is survived by his parents Shirley and Michael; his dog, Achilles; his grandparents Lorraine and BenTrujillo and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Cremation has taken place, and an intimate celebration of Nathaniel's life will be at a later date. Nathaniel Austin Chavez...a son, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend...Deeply loved and forever will be missed. We love you, Son.. Mama, Papa, and AchillesDonations
