So sorry to hear about Natalie's death. I was her coworker and friend at Merkley School for a number of years. She always had a smile on her face, a giggle in her speech, and a purposeful rush to her next task. She took care of all of our classroom needs with pride and caring. Natalie and I shared recipes and hints for a sugar free life. I will remember our conversations so many days with warmth and fondness. Her memory is a blessing to all who knew her.
