Natalie Dawn Love (Stein)

Obituary

Passed on

1975-2018      It is with deep sadness that we announce on March 14, 2018 Natalie passed away peacefully in the loving embrace of her family. At the age of 42, Natalie had spent the last eight years of her life ‘breaking limitations, believing, finding peace, hope and understanding’ on her cancer journey. Natalie will live on in the hearts of her husband Jeff Love, their children, Tyler, Gavin and Kaden; her parents, Brian and Judy Stein; her sisters and their families; Laura, Michael, Rachel and Jonas Perrella; Christine, Dan, Damon, Marcus and Luke Skakum. She will also be dearly missed by her extended family and many friends who joined her on her life journey. Natalie started her journey in Edmonton Alberta, born into a military family. This enabled Natalie to make friendships easily and adapt to changing circumstances. Natalie graduated from Red River Community College as a Health Records Technician. This set her off on a new path to Lynn Lake Manitoba where she met Jeff and their love story began. Together they built an incredibly strong family, raising three awesome sons as they moved around Manitoba. Their footsteps eventually brought them to Stonewall. Shortly after their move, Natalie’s journey with melanoma really began. This journey is documented in her blog; ithinkiwillgoforawalk.blogspot.com. Natalie’s life was all about the little things; dancing in the kitchen with her boys, family rock band wars, gardening, relaxing by the pool with her love, walks in Quarry Park with her dog, Caramel, being a supportive hockey mom and simply loving her family and friends. A celebration of Natalie’s life will be held on Friday, March 23rd, 2018 2:00 pm at the Heritage Arts Center in Stonewall Manitoba. The family will have a private internment at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Natalie’s two favourite supports; Callanish Society: www.callanish.org YACC (Young Adult Cancer Canada): www.youngadultcancer.ca Thank you to all of the health care staff that have supported Natalie on this journey. Special thanks to Dr. Wong, Dr. Fewer and Dr. Graham who held a special place in Natalie’s heart.
