We packed alot of adventures in 52 years. She was the friend you could call with last minute ideas, no matter how crazy and she was game for it all.  We solved family and world problems over late night coffee and pie that always ended in laughter at our favorite local pie shop. Everything I do will always bring memories of Natalie because we did everything together. She will always be a part of my life.
