On Sunday, October 12, 2025, Lieutenant Nathan Kaas of the Riverside County Sheriff's Office passed away from a hunting accident in Southern Idaho. Lieutenant Kaas' career began in April of 2000 as a Deputy for the Department, with him rising to the rank of Lieutenant over the Sheriff's Emergency Response Team.

Lieutenant Kaas, 48, was a husband and father of three. His relationship, love and service to Jesus Christ, his church and community, emboldened his impact on the many walks of life he encountered. He will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and loyal friend. 

Nathan's character as a protector and mentor embodied the Service Above Self pride of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. His relationship, love and service to Jesus Christ strengthened his impact on the many walks of life he encountered.  

Lieutenant Kaas' loved ones, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, and the Riverside County Sheriffs’ Association, thank you for your support, prayers and donations for the Kaas family.

I believe the reason to make a donation is simple, a family that needs support of any kind at such a terrible accident happens, this is the only way for me to help except for prayer as well, God Bless this family, and hold them in your loving arms.
