It is with a heavy heart and much sadness that we announce the passing of the NRP founder, Toney Davis, as many know he has struggled with cancer for a number of years. His body gave out before his spirit and he has gone on to his next adventure. Please join the NRP family in not only mourning our loss but celebrating the life of this amazing man.
