  5. These old photos are wonderful to look at, but they are also very poignant when you realize what Natalie's fate was. Who could've imagined she would die right off the boat where she spent some of her happiest times with the people who meant the most to her?

  6. Marianne, I'm looking through some old photo folders. I will try to post more this week. I agree, it is so sad to think about her fate ... she died off the boat she named "Splendour!"

  7. Hi, Marti:

    I am home sick today, reading "GNGS" again from cover to cover. I have gone back so many times to various parts of it. But now I want to read it again thoroughly. And I plan to post a review on Amazon soon.

    A friend wants to borrow the book, so I have to re-read it fast--not at all hard to do because it's so compelling and emotional. I'm prepared to cry all over again. But then I don't even have to read the book to do that--I just think of certain things I recall from it.

    I will look forward to more photos of Natalie! Thank you for sharing them.

  9. Thank you for these wonderful pictures of Natalie. I look forward to more. They bring to the forefront that this site is about a real, flesh and blood human being, not some character in a movie. Someone who was a daughter, sister, friend, wife and mother. A woman who strived to be the best she could be in all areas of her life.
    Please hurry with a sequel. The way you write is truly art. You made me feel as if I was there at each situation you presented.
    Gone too soon, gone too soon.........
