    Bobbie, I was so sad to hear about Natalie's passing. A friend that use to live in Monticello emailed me. I sent the email to Debbie also. She was in the 7th grade when we moved. She had good memories of Natalie. We enjoyed you all as our neighbors. Our prayers are with you and your family.

    I am one of her net friends. She sent me a very nice note when my mom passed. I never imagined I would be saying bye to Natalie or Tasha as we knew here, so soon.
    To her family my deep sympathies and prayers to you. She was a nice person. One of the first people I met online and spoke to .
    We have let Shelly and Kim know via email of her passing and others who knew of her on the net. She went too soon.

    Miss Bobbie:

    Several years ago you and your beautiful daughter opened you arms, hearts, and home to me. You both spent countless hours worring about me and giving me the best advise on life I could ask for.

    Just recently I spent time on the phone catching up on everyone and looking so forward to seeing you both.

    Please know the relationship you and Natalie shared is envied by mother's and daughter's everywhere.

    Thank you, Natalie for sharing your home and your mother with me. The time I spent with you, the late night talks,the trips, the wonderful meals, and your just telling me like it was are treasures to me. And believe it or not you taught me so much and you are still helping me today. Thank you for loving me.

    God has another piece of gold to line Heaven with. Keep your loving arms around your mother and help her to be comforted by knowing you are in Heaven with the Lord and Angels where you will never ever suffer again.

    May the Lord put his hedge of protection around you Miss Bobbie, I Love You.
