They found at many times that they would take care of each other when illness took place. Charles died in 2011. Nathalie was always a caretaker. In her past she took care of her ailing sister for many years. She loved watching sports and even recently talked about how well the Packers were doing.
Survivors include daughters Diane (Fred) Doebler, Mt. Horeb, Wis., and Carolyn (Gerald) Kleist, Riverview, Fla.; stepdaughters Susan Revelle, Salisbury, Md., and Sally Walsh, Bennett, Colo.; five grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren.
