My dear Natasha. Oh how I’m going to miss you, all our chats at Stein Mart, sharing our thoughts and giggling at some of the funny things we saw happening on the floor at work. I’ll miss your beautiful smile and your friendly personality. We became close and I will cherish that forever. God is watching over you and I hope someday to see you again. I love you Kathye
May you find favorable rebirth with your family.
Victor, we love you so and will always miss Natasha and think of her always when we gather with the paragliding gang. It won’t be the same without her.
You made your family proud. We will miss you.
Natasha – I am already missing you. You were fun to work with and I enjoyed your humor….especially how we could banter sarcastically back and forth. We always seemed to make each other laugh through the good and bad times. I will pray for your family’s healing from your loss. Goodbye friend.
I remember one morning at our meeting how you said we were like a family. Well, your family is going to miss you at work.
Natasha ~ we will always think of you with fond memories and feel blessed that our paths crossed in this life. You were/are a beautiful spirit! Visit your loved ones often in thoughts and dreamswe’ll look for you on the hill and I’m sure you will be there in some form of beauty
