Natalie Slocumb Witte

Natalie you are missed. The world was a kinder place when you were in it . Your spirit lives on in the good work of otherd

Please accept my condolences on the loss of Natalie. I met Natalie at my first job in Madison at the UW Psych Unit in 1977. I was a young nurse with just a few years of experience but I knew right away she would be one of the best nurses I ever met and she was. She was very kind to me and although we did not work together for long I saw her many times over the years at our union functions and was delighted that she always remembered me. It was a privilege to have known her.

Jim, I was sorry to learn of your mom's passing from a mutual friend. I fondly remember her smile from our time at Asbury and how she and your dad were always so involved in the work of the church and its ministry. What a legacy she leaves to you and the entire Witte family. Prayers and hugs. Hebrews 6:10: God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people.

I knew Natalie and Ken when they were members at Asbury UMC . I remember Natalie telling me how they spent summers visiting this camp in upstate New York where they attended lectures and structured activities. Natalie was cool, extraordinary and in a league of her own. I really admired her (and Ken). I appreciated their intellect and hard work and devotion to things they believed in. What a great life she lived! I know you will miss your mom, grandmother, great-grandmother and aunt. Enjoy the...

I am so sad to hear of Natalie's passing from this life. She was an amazing person--so kind and full of compassion. I knew her from all of our activities in the Union and at UW Hospitals. Natalie was unique in her advocacy for nurses and enable us to have a life outside of work. She understood the necessity of taking care of self in order to be there for others. My deepest condolences to the extraordinary family that she and Ken brought to this world. Natalie--- May the goodness in your...

Jim, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. My deepest condolences. Frances Kirkwood

I was fortunate to grow up next door to the amazing Witte family. Faith, family & neighbors (who were made to feel like family) were so important to her. I remember the Witte Christmas Eve caroling on "the circle" & "the trail". Public health in action: she invited me over to play cards with K.C. in order to get German measles from him. Many years later when I was starting my own family I was so grateful for her thoughtfulness. Rest in peace Natalie. Thank you for the memories
