I was so sorry to read of Nat's passing. She was such a sweet, lovely woman with a smile for everyone. She was a good friend to my mother-in-law Estelle at Dirigo Pines. I am very sorry for your loss.

On behalf of the volunteer department of Winchester Hospital, I want to express our sympathy to all of Nate's family. She was a devoted volunteer, serving as a messenger from 1981 to 2003 during which time she contributed close to 2800 hours of service to our patients, staff and visitors. We remember her fondly and are grateful for her many years of service.
