Nathan Ryan Saleh of Indianapolis, age 28, passed away unexpectedly on November 9, 2018. Born on December 3, 1989, he was the son of Karrie Mulder (Marschke) and Ihab Saleh. Nathan graduated from Franklin Central High School in 2008 and also attended Central Nine Career Center. He was an outdoorsman who loved fishing, hunting, farming, music and spending time with loved ones. He particularly loved spending his days with his beloved Nana, Linda. He was a big-hearted, family and friend oriented man who was known as “Bubby” or “Nater Tater” to most. He had the ability to make anyone laugh and his smile was contagious.
He is survived by his mother, Karrie Mulder and stepfather Shannon Mulder; father, Ihab Saleh; siblings, Kazia Saleh, Quade Saleh, Dheaven Williams, Kaylea Mulder and Ryan Mulder; grandparents, Linda Marschke, Mohy and Marcelle Saleh; and many aunts, uncles, nieces, cousins and friends. Preceding him in death was his late grandfather, John H. Marschke, and best friend, Logan Scroggins.
There will forever be a void in our family circle where you once stood and filled us with your funny antics and beautiful smile. You will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Until we are together again someday… we love you, Bubby!
A memorial service will be held on Friday, November 16, 2018, from 3:00 until 4:30pm at Indiana Funeral Care located at 2433 East Main Street, Greenwood, IN 46143.

My best memory of Nathan who I called big country, we where hanging Christmas lights on my house because he was so determined to help me do it. Well he hooked all the lights together and when we flipped the switch lights started to pop, he was like aunt Julie what the hell did I do wrong, me and his nana who was supervising from the ground started to laugh, here he is standing on my roof with his hands on is hips and I looked up at him and said OMG, ho ho ho green giant. We laughed so hard standing on that roof, it’s a day I’ll never forget. Love you big country.

I want to express my sympathies to the Saleh family. I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope that you find comfort in knowing that one day you’ll have the hope of seeing your loved ones again. Acts 24:15 says that “there is going to be a resurrection.” What this can mean for you is a real hope of being reunited with your dear loved ones. During difficult times like this, we need comfort, and Almighty God is the source of that comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) May you find strength in knowing that death is not the end, but that there is a beautiful hope of seeing our loved ones again at a time when “death will be no more.” (Revelation 21:4)

Man OG! Just doesn’t seem real… Had been talking to you often lately… Which we hadnt done since we were kids…. We had conversations on video chat that lasted hours and were full of laughs and tears and reminiscing… always found myself with a smile thatll hurt your cheek muscles after our conversations…. I regret that our plans to hang out were never accomplished…. Im going to miss you like crazy…. The last few days before your passing i kept thinking i needed to call you but life got away from me as always and never got a chance to and now that chance is gone…. I know that now youre with Jesus and no longer struggling with all the things we talked about in our recents convos and if nothing else that alone lifts my heart a tiny bit in the tragic sitiation… Fly high big buddy….. Miss you and love you forever…. Kazia Quade and Dheaven I love you all… Youre in my thoughts and prayers and just know if you need me im just a phone call away

From the time I heard of your passing the only thing that keeps coming to mind is all of the time you spent with Mia. I remember you holding her at 3 months and you kept remarking over and over how little she was. You were the first person who introduced Mia to fishing. You got her a snoopy fishing pole at the age of 3. We even have pictures of you fishing with her in a puddle while it was raining. I remember Nana had bought a baby pool for Mia and you just climbed right in the that pool with her and played. Granted you filled the entire pool, but Mia loved every minute of it. Our hearts are broken with your passing Bubby. We love you Bub.
Kazia Saleh says
Bubby, I will forever be your big sister. I love u and I pray your completely at peace now. I pray u are no longer suffering and no longer will endure pain. I wish i spent more time with you last month. Rest in peace little brother. U will always be my bubby and now my angel. When I see u again we are gonna go fishing. God rest your soul
