my best friend. i’ll never get to say goodbye. i love you so much nat. you were an amazing friend, you were always there for me when i needed someone. i always knew if i needed someone i could call you. i always felt so safe and comfortable with you. when i was with you all of my bad thoughts went away, all of my sadness went away, i felt nothing but happiness around you. you were so beautiful nat, your smile, your eyes, your hair. i’m going to miss your face time calls. i wish i could hug you, see you, and hear your voice again. i love you more than anything natalie. i don’t know how i’m going to live without you. you wanted to move to nyc when we turned 18 and get a nice apartment together, get good paying jobs, meet new people, and live our best lives. you loved listening to lil durk and von, you used to blast it all the time omgg i miss you so much. i miss screaming our hearts out to music when we were sad, i miss going on walks and having deep conversation with you, i miss ding dong ditching with you, i miss being in class with you, i miss when you came over and we did nothing but watch movies and eat, i miss when you’d come over and we would chill and not even talk. i miss feeling your hugs, i miss hearing your voice, i miss smelling your scent. this feels so unreal to me. i love you i’ll see you soon baby i love you so much💔. i haven’t been myself since i found out you were gone, i feel so numb, i’ve been crying non stop. i’m gonna miss you so much. rest easy my love 🤍. - love vanessa. my condolences to nats family and loved ones. she loved you guys, be strong everyone.

My heart is so broken in to so many pieces. And I can’t imagine the broken hearts of Natalie’s family members. I first met Natalie at McDonald’s when we were working. Red short hair , pony up high, and she was taking an order. I remember thinking about how pretty she was and that I wanted to be friends. I never knew the question “ hey what is your name” would build such chemistry between two beautiful young girls. we became two best friends working at McDonald’s an 7-3 shift. , exhausted , independent , but we managed to make the most beautiful and most funniest memories ever. I remember how excited you were talking about having kids in the future and becoming a mom. My sweet girl… you will never get to have the chance to stand on that stage, gown on, and holding your diploma. You will never get the chance to walk down the aisle of your beautiful wedding day with your father, your mother wont get the chance to tell you how beautiful you look in your dress. You will never get the chance to become the mother you always wished to become. The family you wished to build in the future. I love you Natalie, the sunsets have became more beautiful. I stare at the sunset hoping that you are looking at me back. I miss you my sweet girl 💞

Gloria, PJ, Nathanial, Jody, and Kevin: You're in our thoughts and prayers. Love always … Joe, Patty, and Lindsay Vanden Plas
