| April 16, 2007, 3:16 am hey Nat, aunt Mary here. It seems the last year has been a blur without our family intact. We all still ask what could have been done to help you and know that for you, this was the only answer. Actually we hope you, your mom and aunt Libby are having one great reunion. Don't think you are rid of us though! We think of all of you constantly and SOMEDAY we'll all be there to give you hugs and kisses. Briana is going to aunt lynn's this summer. They should have a good time. I always do when Lynn and I get together. Uncle Don really misses you. He claims you were the only one that actually spent time talking with him. Now I have to do that. Oh well, gotta go- Love Aunt Mary | ||||

| April 13, 2007, 8:01 am Saturday,May 5th is the HOPES walk. Registration starts at8:30 and the walk begins at 10:00. I hope to see as many of you,the friends of Brandon and Natalie as possible. It was good seeing you at Brandon's Memorial service and it will be good to see you again. I recently heard a CW song that makes me think of Natalie. It's called for the love of sunshine and the lyrics fit so well. I would have never thought I would listen to country. | ||||

| April 8, 2007, 7:08 am BRANDON and NATALIE, happy easter. I hope you two are dancing up there. today is easter and also the day natalie went to join you brandon in that big gig in the sky. not a day goes by that I still think of you two. Natalie, I didn't know you but what little I know now is enough for me to know how much you meant to your family/friends and especially brandon. I know that every day you two watch over your friends and family. You watch us grow and change. Oh and brandon, it was weird for Kody (the green dog/bird) for a while after you first left us. He was so used to you coming over and letting him play with your piercings and just hanging out with you and dean all day. The green machine will always remember you. :) as will everyone else remember the both of you. | ||||

| April 8, 2007, 6:13 am Dear Natalie, You are on the minds today of so many relatives, your friends and family. Happy Easter, my dear niece. It is also the first anniversary of the day you decided to leave us. How shocked and grief stricken we were when your Dad phoned us in Crandon where we were visiting Grandma Wiegan. It was incomprehensible to hear what had happened to you. The next ten days were the worst days of our lives as we spent most of them at the hospital with your Dad, who was at your side each day, seeking out the opinion of one doctor and then consulting with other specialists. Briana was there with so many friends that we did not know, but who came each and every day. Your special friend, Lucas, was at your bedside many days and nights. Your Uncle Bud has not removed his bracelet, on which the words Donate Life appear, since Briana handed it to him after your services. We are commited to donating our organs and all the official paperwork is in place. We have read the entry of Tricia, who received your lungs on April 18 and now has a chance for a longer, healthier life. We hope you are at peace, but you cannot imagine the huge void you left here on Earth when you decided to end your life. Depression in teens, we have learned, is at an epidemic level and young people need to seek help as there is help available. No family should have to endure losing a child to depression. Remember, you are in our hearts and minds every day. Love, Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Bud | ||||

| February 28, 2007, 4:25 pm Over the past year since these two people left us, it got me thinking different thoughts than I normally do. At first I thought selfishly, this'll blow over in a few weeks, then i said to myself, two people commited suicide, how can I say that? So I did my own little asking around about Brandon and Natalie, then found this website, and I learned that these weren't just your average students. I never knew Brandon or Natalie personally, but now it feels like I know their whole life stories. I'll admit, I had a thought of suicide, but then I realize how people really feel inside. School just isn't the same without certain people, you know? and now I'm cryin on my keyboard...To the families, I wish I could say, I know how you feel, but I don't, and I'm deeply sorry for your losses. As everyone says, We lost 2 friends, but Heaven gained 2 angels. Brian. | ||||

| February 28, 2007, 6:28 am natalie, i have so many great memories of you from the first few years when you came to mcfarland. tubing, fishing, having sleepovers, playing with hunter as a puppy, seeing you at my place downtown, making up dances to britney spears songs haha, and i'll never forget the time you ate a whole jar of green olives for breakfast :P you were my best friend, and i wish we would have stayed that close throughout middle school and highschool. although it makes me sad to know that we can never make more memories together, i'll hold all the great ones i have close to me forever. i just want you to know you were my best friend, i still think about you every day, and more than anything else, i'll always love you. | ||||

The memorial Service will be held at Messiah Luthern Church on Cottage Grove Road in Madison at 5:00 P.M. We will also be going out to dinner afterwards, but the resturaunt is not yet decided. Everyone is welcome. Its been a rough year for us all, and everyones love and support has been a tremendous help. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has helped us out along the way, it has made it a little bit less stressful and hard knowing everyone still cares about us and thinks about Brandon. Once again thank you to everyone, and I hope to see you all at the Service | ||||

| January 26, 2007, 5:12 am I am another friend of Tricia's who is blessed by your gift of organ donation. Thank you so much for helping to save the life of our friend. While I never met either Natalie or Brandon, I have spent much time today looking through your web site and mourning them with you. Thank you for turning your experience into a miracle for us.

| January 26, 2007, 1:05 am Thank you for sharing with us the lives of these two beautiful kids. While I knew neither of them, I am fortunate to be touched by Natalie's gift of organ donation. One of my close friends received Natalie's lungs. Because of your generosity Tricia can breathe freely. Thank you for saving a valuable life. | ||||

| January 24, 2007, 9:56 am I was on break in the breakroom at menards on sunday and when i'll be missing you started playing on my ipod, tears started coming down and i was thinking back to the last meeting we were at and we were sitting in the middle booth and not paying attention(as usual) and just talking and Natalie was sorting through things in her purse. Meetings are one of the hardest things at menards to deal with you being gone. We had one, a week after you passed away and it was extrememly hard going by myself because we usually went together to them. I miss you very much Natalie!! and i'll love you always! | ||||

| January 14, 2007, 4:48 pm Hi, guys. It's Holly. I'm not sure if you remember me because we havent talked in a while. I just wanted to say that I think about Natalie every day and I miss her so much. We would have so much fun at the Dells and little get togethers. I remember when I got a stubbed toe and Natalie scooped me up and brought me back to the room then hadned me a pop tart. I will never look at pop tarts the same way as cheesy as that may sound. I really hope our families could get together soon. I miss Natalie and Wendy so much and I hope to see the rest of you soon. | ||||

| January 14, 2007, 3:11 pm Hi Everyone, Tricia--thank you so much for sharing your story. It is inspiring and amazing. I would love to have your website address, thank you for being willing to share. I have visited this site quite a few times in the last month and just have not been able to find the words to say...it is overwhelming seeing the images of Natalie. I had the pleasure of knowing Natalie as a camper and counseler in training at YMCA Camp Matawa. She always made an impression on me...usually due to her outspoken nature and keen ability to call it like she saw it! I know that everyone has very personal reasons for missing Natalie, but I think the biggest one for me is that in her last summer at camp she did an amazing job when she moved into a cabin and worked with the younger campers. She was really wonderful and I felt like she understood that now was her chance to give back some of the great memories and spirit she had felt as a camper herself. I am sorry that she will not be able to continue to pass that spirit on. Barry, thank you for letting us say good bye to Natalie in our own Matawa way last summer. It meant a lot to all of us. Briana, I hope that Matawa continues to be a place filled with great old memories as well as a place to make wonderful new ones. I can't wait to see you in July! Natalie we will miss you but know you are watching us. In the Spirit of Matawa, Jen | ||||
