I was delighted to have Natalie join me at my 65th birthday. I so loved and appreciated her genuine interest in my life. Natalie was such a lovely "bonus" Mum.

Very saddened to hear this news, what a thoroughly Lovely Woman Natalie is. As remarked elsewhere she could light up a room a little simply by walking into it, a person of considerable grace,
Fare ye well Mrs. Upjohn...

Natalie was a kind and caring support to our family in our Waimate days. She made a difference for us all when times were tough, and never hesitated to reach out. Thinking of you all, with lots of lovely memories that linger. Vivienne Milmine (McEntee)

Saddened to hear of Natalie passing, we are thinking of you all at this time and treasure all the happy memories of her with great pride. Dad (Robin) was very found of her. I can now guess she, Bert and him are having a good catch up somewhere out there. Much love to you all at this sad time. Fond regards, Sarah Gilchrist

Remembering Natalie with love. She quietly shared in our village life and activities. Her company and comments at Book Club are a special memory. Thinking of her family at this time.
