Nati the greatest gentleman on earth! He and my father met in Guadalajara at age 7 years old, and continued their closed friendship all through their lives. Nati is and was kind of a second father for my brothers and me.
Nati: there is joy in Heaven because you are there. You and my parents, my sisters as well are my angels

I have the warmest memories of Nati Cano and Los Camperos - the VIP arrivals at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel would not have been complete without Nati and Los Camperos while our family owned the hotel. His presence contributed to the joy and pageantry that became synonymous with the grand welcome to the hotel , and made so many many moments unforgettable for so many people. My father Hernando had great respect for Nati and no important event was complete without him and his Mariachis. I will always remember him as a caballero, and a friend of our family. Que vaya con Dios!

I was so saddened when I was told of Nati's passing. He was one of the finest gentlemen! So respectful of fellow performers. I will never forget his kindness, professionalism and respect. He gave my father Carlos Cardona the opportunity to sing with Los Camperos and to film a Christmas special at La Fonda. So many wonderful memories and smiles. You will be sorely missed and remembered fondly. Our deepest condolences to his family. if you listen closely you can hear beautiful mariachi music from Heaven. Vikki Carr

Rest In Peace, Mr. Nati Cano...
It has been a pleasure seeing & listening to Mariachi Los Camperos for many years. Once you would hear their signature "...Ya llegaron Los Camperos con su guitara..." one knew that a spectacular & delightful musical experience, that had your thumbprint on it, was about to unfold.
With as much gratitude, I can possibly muster, I applaude you, Don Nati, for your hard work, years of dedication, and for being amidst the leaders in the Arts that have had an astonishing impact in truly elevating the regional Mexican Mariachi music to that of global notoriety and that dared to cross into the world of Hip-Hop & Classical music.
My most sincerest condolences to the family, and to each and every one of the accomplished musicians that have had the privilege of wearing a Charro suit donning the prestigious and ever so distinguished name, el Mariachi Los Camperos de Nati Cano.
Los acompanio en su dolor.

We celebrate a life that was lived well! Sadness for a bit, but remember all the of incredible things Nati Cano did throughout his life. From concert halls in Europe, to Havana, Cuba, from Jalisco to Tucson, Arizona and throughout the Southwest, Nati's vision continues to influence so many young aspiring musicians. What a great legacy! Thoughts and prayers are with all who knew him and enjoyed the sweet sound of Mariachi Los Camperos de Nati Cano!

Por cantar de su patria por todo el mundo
Se le admiraba
Todos sus compañeros, con gran respeto
"Chief" le llamaban
Mi amigo Nati Cano al cielo va a subir
De todos sus Camperos se viene a despedir
Su publico querido le quiere dedicar
Un sentido homenaje hoy que se va a embarcar
Saludando a San Pedro con su sonrisa
Va entrando al cielo
Entra con su guitarra, cantando alegre:
"Llego el Campero"
Con esta me despido, adiós no te diré
Un sencillo hasta luego nada mas te daré
El mundo del mariachi de ti se acordará
Por siempre agradecido tus sones cantará
Rest in peace, Chief.

Dear Family and Friends of Nati:
I'm sorry to hear about Nati's sudden departure. Throughout his life, he generously shared his musical talent with multitudes of students and other musicians and left a legacy that will be difficult to match.
I will miss Nati; and, I am sure, he will be profoundly missed by thousands upon thousands of his students and fans in USA, Mexico, and abroad.
With deepest sympathy to members of “Mariachi los Campersos de Nati Cano and to Nati's family and friends,
Warmly,

How you remembered my Papa. I will miss you Nati, Thanks for the ever fond memories of birthdays at the Fonda that we celebrated and you came to our table, I will carry those memories to Heaven, where I know we will at meet again.

Nati was a great group leader, friend and mentor to me for eight years. Thanks to his visionary spirit I had the honor of becoming the first woman to be a member of Mariachi Los Camperos and I will cherish those years forever.

U were so influential to soooooooooooo many that One could never imagine!
I have always been so proud when I would have cla chance to see Los Camperos, and National would say "BUENAS TARDES! PERDON PERDON PERDON! No pienso que me oyeron! " the crowd would get so loud! His musical and showmanship talents have always been appreciated! To Andrea and the girls, my sincerest condolences!
He was who he was, and he was an inspiration to anyone interested into pursuing mariachi music!
Que descanses con dios!
