crying ... The true saints of Jesus Christ are not known in the generation that they are born into. Your Mum Matthew is and was a Musical Genius and Legend! Her Soul is Beautiful and Colourful Beyond Compare! She will be dearly missed. Heartbreak, Sadness, Deep Grief, Pain, Loss, all cause humility and meekness in a person, in order for him or her to understand that money does not change things and make things better, as your Mum brilliantly said. Life is much more than fame, glamour, wealth, luxury, comfort, selfishness, greed, pride, lust, and success. Life is Jesus Christ. The Truth is Jesus. The Way to Heaven is Jesus. Amin. As Jesus Christ Taught, this life is but a vapour, extremely brief in the plan of the eternal life of each soul. I Pray that your Beautiful, Loving, Selfless, Kind, Humble, Meek, Gentle, Forgiving, Modest, Amazing, and Wonderful Mum is in the arms of our God and Saviour, Christ Jesus. Amin. My condolences Matthew. I cannot imagine the pain of missing your Mum. Feel ok to call upon and ask Jesus Christ to Comfort and Console you in these painful times. God's Peace, Protection, Guidance and Provision be with you Always AllWays Wonderful Matthew. Amin. Be well. a big fan of your Mum, and your brother in Christ, farzad

Natalie, I want to sincerely thank you for all you have done to brighten this world, to allow us all to dream and to realize there is something out there greater than ourselves. You have inspired me greatly, as many others around the world, and I'll never forget you. As a mere mortal on earth, I truly mourn your passing, but as a free spirit that will live on, I look forward to connecting again. I am sure that your beautiful soul is out there enjoying the amazing music of our cosmos and of the spiritual world, connecting once again with those that have already left this world. Thank you for making a difference.....and you REALLY did! You deserve all the best that everlasting life and love has to offer.

Beth hall — 15 March 2023
I was fortunate to cross paths with Natalie while traveling through Australia and met her in a small laundry mat on Errol St. in North Melbourne. I'll never forget how impactful and how exciting our conversation was as we exchanged stories and waited together for the machines to do their work. I instantly felt how incredibly humble of a human she was. She dug into her purse and gave me a gold Australian dollar coin and told me to keep it forever as a memory of this time [traveling], I still have this token from her. In our conversation, she shared with me she played the piano and had some youtube videos I could check out, but again she humbley downplayed her talent. It wasn't until after we had departed that I looked her up, and realized the sensation she was! I have so enjoyed checking in on her life through FB, and listening to her music while being back home in USA. What a beautiful soul and wonderful Son she has raised. Prayers for you, Matthew, and the whole family. Though her absence is sad indeed, the heavens are rejoicing!
Dianna Bowen — 15 March 2023
From a huge fan in Montana, USA. Your genius, Natalie, was definitely a gift from God and as a result, thousands of people were able to enjoy your gift. Now the angels will sing when you play. Prayers to you and your family.

Avi — 15 March 2023
I moved to Melbourne about 11yrs ago. I remember working 15 hr days where I would get about a 30 min lunch break. Natalie would occasionally be around the corner of Elizabeth and Flinders playing her music and it would just alleviate all my stresses and bring a smile to my face. I am just one of many Melbournians whose hearts she has warmed with her music. You will be truly missed.
Ann Murray — 15 March 2023
Natalie, your music gave my mother much joy as she wandered through the city. You and she would chat from time to time about Mums childhood memories when she played the piano. I hope your paths cross again some time. Beautiful lady.Ann

Gerry Padilla — 15 March 2023
I was so touched when I saw a video of Natalie playing such a sensitive and beautiful musical piece and I was shocked to discover that it was an original song of her own. I believe it was the video that made her famous. I think about her from time to time and the surprise I experienced witnessing her talents helped invigorate my appreciation of random and regular people. Ill carry the memory of her to my final days. She seemed like such a beautiful soul. What a wonderful world weve had the opportunity to be a part of among wonderful and beautiful people like Natalie. Very, very thankful for her life.
