Nate graduated from Biloxi High School (BHS) in 1989, where he played Safety and Cornerback positions on the football team and was a member of the Track and Field Team. In 1989, he won First Place in the Gaston Hewes Relays Long Jump Event. He was inducted into the Biloxi High School Hall of Fame for his athletic achievements.

He owned and operated Culbreath Transportation, a full-service charter bus, shuttle, and tour company specializing in group travel and a Mobile Cigar Lounge, an Entertainment and Event Hosting Vehicle.

Nate met his high school sweetheart, Consuelo Ivey where they were elected as “Beaus and Beauties” in their senior year in 1989. Their love blossomed and after reuniting ten years later, they were married on April 24, 1999, moving to Slidell, Louisiana. They recently celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary in 2024. They have enjoyed traveling and spending quality time with family and friends.

Nate developed a love for golf and was a very active player traveling and playing on numerous golf courses throughout the United States. He became a member of the River Parish Golf Association whose purpose was to promote and conserve the best interests and true spirit of the game of golf as embodied in its ancient and honorable traditions. Nate quickly became a leader and served as Vice-President and President.

Nate’s loving and kind yet stern spirit will be greatly missed and live on in those he has touched. His goal in life was to make you smile even at your own expense. He wanted everyone to receive joy in their lives by choosing positivity, prosperity, good health, fortune, joy, and happiness.
