Obituary of Natalie Everett
On February 26th, 2011, Natalie Mae (Jones) Everett died peacefully in Charlottetown, PEI, at the age of 51. Natalie was currently of Long Creek, PEI, and formerly of Fredericton, NB, Jacksonville, NB, and Racine, Wisconsin.
She is survived by her husband Frank; children Scott, Claire (Corey), Lauren and Tim; parents Roger and Fay Jones; brother Nathan Jones; parents-in-law Floyd and Ruth Everett; sisters-in-law Marlene Everett, Carolyn (Allan) Van Dine, Susan (Larry) Currie; brother-in-law Ken (Lorna) Everett; many other friends and extended family members.
Everyone who knew Natalie knew that she loved God with her whole being. In all she did, whether she was entertaining friends and family, planning and leading worship, or simply breathing, she sought to honour God and to draw others to him. Even in her last months and days, she continued to grow in her experience of God’s love for her, and she wanted everyone to know the freedom, peace and joy that comes from knowing that love. Today, in the presence of her Saviour and Friend, we are confident that she is continuing to worship in spirit and in truth.
Visitation will be held at York Funeral Home in Fredericton on Tuesday, March 1st from 2-4 pm and from 7-9 pm. The funeral will be held at Woodstock Baptist Church on Wednesday, March 2nd at 1 pm, officiated by Pastor Stephen Fenton. The burial will take place immediately after at the Upper Jacksonville United Baptist Cemetery, and will be followed by a reception at Woodstock Baptist Church.
