Nathan L. Brotherwood

Nathan Brotherwood, age 45, of Delphos, Ohio, passed away peacefully on June 22, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family.

Born on December 30, 1980. Nathan was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend whose life touched countless hearts. He was a part of Marimor for over 43 years. Though Nathan faced challenges throughout his life due to his disability, he was defined not by those challenges but by his loving spirit, joyful personality, and the happiness he brought to everyone around him. Nathan found great joy in the simple pleasures of life. He loved working puzzles, collecting stuffed animals, and spending time with his family. He was known for his playful nature and his fondness for hats and new T-shirts.

Those who knew Nathan will always remember his unforgettable hugs—tight squeezes often accompanied by kisses that made everyone feel loved and appreciated. His unique sense of humor and playful antics brought smiles and laughter wherever he went. Nathan taught those around him valuable lessons about unconditional love, acceptance, patience, and finding joy in everyday moments. He had a remarkable ability to brighten a room simply by being himself.

Nathan is survived by his loving parents, Barbara and David Brotherwood of Delphos; his brother, Neil Brotherwood and wife Kassie of Delphos, and their children, Kellen, Kamden, Karson, and Kinsley; his brother, Dustin Brotherwood and wife Laura of St. Augustine, Florida, and their children Taizley and Triton; his sister, Danielle Wills and spouse Alex of Delphos, and their children Dalton and Greyson; and his sister, Michelle Wurst and spouse Logan of Elida, and their children Elysian and Arlen. He also leaves behind many extended family members and friends who loved him dearly.

He was preceded in death by paternal grandparents, Francis and Myrtle Brotherwood; maternal grandparents, Elmer and Felicia Dickman; and a nephew, Roman Wurst.
