A devout Catholic, Natalie was a faithful member of St. Wendelin Catholic Church. She was actively involved in the Catholic Ladies of Columbia, Circle of Mercy (Honorary Life Member), Rosary Altar Society, and Daughters of Isabella, and she dedicated much of her time as a festival worker and supporter.

Natalie's passions included gardening, baking, canning, sewing, bowling, camping, and traveling.
