Nathan "Nate" Knoth

Nathan "Nate" Knoth, age 64, a beloved figure in the Paducah, Kentucky community, passed away on September 20, 2024, leaving a legacy of enthusiasm and camaraderie. Born on Thursday, July 28,1960, in Paducah, Kentucky, Nate was known for his infectious smile and a heart as open as the roads he loved to ride.
 
A proud 1978 graduate of Paducah Tilghman High School, Nate was remembered for his athletic prowess, playing a key role on the baseball team. He served his country in the U.S. Army. His love for sports continued into his adult life, evidenced by his victory in the S.A.C. Bowling Tournament and the passion he showed on the softball field. Nate delivered joy as he did parcels, working with McCartney Produce before his cherished tenure with Four Rivers Harley Davidson.
 
Nate's spirit was as free as the wind he chased on his Harley, an interest that became synonymous with his identity. Nate's departure is deeply felt by all who knew him for his dedication, infectious laughter, and genuine love for life. He especially enjoyed all the time he spent with his family.

Mr. Knoth was preceded in death by his mother Betty Jane Browning; his grand parents Mary and Travis Browning; his son-in-law, Shawn Holder; his ex-wife Nanette Knoth Oliver; and brother-in-law Mike Ryan.
