Nevan loved music, art, and wolves. He played the guitar and spent a lot of time drawing. He enjoyed being with his friends and spending time with his family. He was never too busy for his little sister. The joy that filled the room when they were together was truly heartwarming. He wasn't afraid to lend a helping hand, he did it for the experience and satisfaction it gave, no job was ever too big. He cared deeply and had a huge heart. Nevan will be remembered for being humble and kind to others and for his strength and courage during difficult times of loss and grief.

You are not your body, not your brain, not even your mind. You are spirit. You are limitless. You are a being of light, of wisdom, of love.
