Nattie was born in Arayat Pampanga, Philippines on December 2, 1933.

She was a woman of strong faith, a member of St. Mary's Church of Fort Walton Beach and a part of the choir for 5 years.

Nattie enjoyed sewing, cooking, singing, watching wresting, playing bingo with friends and most of all enjoying her time with family. Her family and friends will forever miss her giggles and infectious smile, her silliness, her generous spirit, and the undeniable love she poured over her family and friends.
