Que en paz descanse 🤍🕊️

No conocí a Natha pero como colombiana que está en Australia, esto me afecta demasiado, siento mucho por su familia y les deseo fortaleza 🕊️

Te amamos por siempre,

Guardo con cariño esos recuerdos cuando nos reíamos a carcajadas, cuando venías a mi casa o cuando yo iba a la tuya para hacerte las uñas. Nos quedó pendiente esa salida a bailar salsa que tanto querías, ¿te acuerdas? Hoy me duele que no hayas podido ver por última vez a tu familia, y que ellos tengan que pasar por este dolor tan grande.

Le pido a Dios que te reciba a su lado y que tu espíritu encuentre paz. A tu familia, que hoy enfrenta este vacío inmenso, le deseo de corazón muchísima fortaleza. Sé que no es nada fácil, y desde la distancia los abrazo con toda mi alma.

Con cariño.

De parte de Steven y Jean Paul queremos enviarte todo nuestro cariño y apoyo en este momento tan difícil. Siempre te recordaremos con mucho cariño y admiración. Que la paz y la fortaleza acompañen a tu familia, y que los recuerdos hermosos que dejaste sean un consuelo en sus corazones.

Con mucho afecto,

Steven y Jean Paul

Dear Nathy,

From Steven and Jean Paul, we want to send you all our love and support in this difficult time. We will always remember you with affection and admiration. May peace and strength be with your family, and may the beautiful memories you left behind bring comfort to their hearts.

With love,

Steven and Jean Paul

Naty, eres luz. Siempre con tu actitud positiva, tu dulzura infinita, esa sonrisa hermosa y contagiosa, y esas ganas de comerte la vida a bocanadas. Así eras tú y así te recordaré siempre. Admiraba tu disciplina, tu amor por el deporte, tu determinación y la forma en que luchabas cada día por tus sueños. Viviste como quisiste: con fuerza, pasión y corazón. Te gozaste la vida, y aunque tu partida repentina deja tantos corazones rotos, estoy segura de que algún día nos volveremos a ver.

Amiga mía, el cielo hoy te recibe con los brazos abiertos para una nueva aventura. Porque no morimos, nos transformamos. Yo te llevaré siempre en mi corazón y jamás olvidaré todo lo que compartimos: nuestras trasnochadas en la universidad, ese día que fuimos por Tara en Mio, las veces que llegabas a mi casa con tu raqueta y tu energía imparable después de tantas horas de trabajo, nuestro último Halloween, nuestra última fiesta, el día que me llevaste a CrossFit y terminé recogida en cucharita, tus maletas enormes llenas de coquitas con cada porción de tu comida medida al detalle, o aquella última comida chatarra en el piso de mi apartamento viendo series.

Cuántos recuerdos hermosos, cuántas risas, cuántas historias… Te voy a extrañar tanto, amiga mía. Te mando un abrazo hasta el cielo, cargado de amor infinito. 💔❤️‍🩹

Att: Viole 💕

Que Dios le dé mucha fortaleza a tu familia. Seguiras en los corazones de todos los que tuvimos la oportunidad de compartir con un ser tan bonito como fuiste tu!

Pedimos a Dios te reciba en el cielo por ese gran ser que partió también pedimos por tus padres, tus hermanos y demás familiares que les de toda la fortaleza y consuelo para pasar este momento difícil

Words cannot describe the immense sorrow reverberating through our hearts tonight. Our minds are replaying our moments together on a loop, reminding us of the privilege we’ve had in knowing you. Your gleaming smile was unlike anyone else’s we’ve ever met and we can’t bare the thought of being without it. Nati, our big sister, we love you and you will always hold a place in our hearts. Our prays go with you to your family in Columbia. May you rest in peace Nati.🤍

Love Lulu & Aakash

Gracias por darme la oportunidad de no solo conocerte como una excelente atleta sino como una increíble persona, gracias por permitirme ayudarte con tu nutrición pero sobre todo con esas charlas de vida que nos dábamos entendiendo que estábamos ambas lejos de casa. Me van hacer falta tus “muñe te necesito”

Siempre recalcaste lo importante que era estar en familia, y por eso extrañabas cada segundo Cali pero nunca dejaste de vivir cada experiencia, a tu familia, a tu amor (tu sobrina) y a cada persona que te quería quien formaba parte de tu círculo le mando un abrazo y mucha fuerza para enfrentar este dolor y este duelo.

Rest in peace, Nathy. I feel so deeply blessed and honoured to have met you here in Australia, to have felt the warmth of your kindness and the light of your compassion and strength. Your laughter and radiant smile could brighten even the coldest winter morning at 6 a.m., as I walked into the gym and greeted you with my clumsy, limited Spanish.

Melbourne will miss you dearly—your joy, your grace, and your unwavering determination. You are now one of God’s angels, watching over those you loved. My heart goes out to your family and friends in Colombia; may they find comfort in the love you shared so generously.

Rest peacefully, beautiful soul. I will carry your laughter and light in my heart forever.

Spanish version:

Descansa en paz, Nathy. Me siento profundamente bendecida y honrada de haberte conocido aquí en Australia, de haber sentido la calidez de tu bondad y la luz de tu compasión y fortaleza. Tu risa y tu radiante sonrisa podían alegrar incluso la más fría mañana de invierno a las 6 a. m., mientras entraba al gimnasio y te saludaba con mi español, que era un poco torpe y limitado. Melbourne te extrañará muchísimo: tu alegría, tu gracia y tu inquebrantable determinación. Ahora eres un ángel de Dios que vela por tus seres queridos. Mi corazón está con tu familia y amigos en Colombia; que encuentren consuelo en el amor que compartiste con tanta generosidad. Descansa en paz, alma hermosa. Llevaré tu risa y tu luz en mi corazón por siempre.

It won’t be the same walking into the gym without your radiant smile lighting up the room. You brought warmth, energy, and joy to every day, and your presence will be deeply missed. You were truly one of a kind — strong, kind, and full of life. Rest in peace, Nathy. You were loved by many, and your spirit will live on in all the hearts you touched.

Rest in peace my beautiful friend. It was an honour and a privilege to have known you. Xx

Love Mel

I’ve never met anyone with a zest for life quite like you, you were so kind, generous, motivated and just downright gorgeous.

Whenever you walked into a room everyone would stop what they were doing just to see your smile, I know that smile will be something countless people will miss for the rest of their lives.

You worked so hard in everything you did and never once complained, you genuinely made everyone’s day better just with your presence. Whenever you laughed we all laughed with you, whenever you smiled we couldn’t help but smile too.

I’ll always admire your relentless drive to improve yourself, I loved seeing the way your eyes lit up with every new achievement. You were an inspiration.

You being gone does not feel real, for such a beautiful life to be cut so short is just so wrong, you deserved the world and this is hideously unfair.

I’ll miss your giggles after Andrew and I would teach you bogan swear words, I’ll miss your boundless enthusiasm, I’ll miss your passion and radiance, most of all I just miss you.

It should hurt to lose someone as special as you, it should leave a wound. The only solace for our pain is that it’s a sign of how much everyone who was lucky enough to know you loved you.

While you were here the world was so much brighter, now the world is so much worse without you.

I’ll cherish your memory until we meet again

Divine plans — or whatever each of us believes in — are always a mystery. We don’t always like uncovering them, but they are there, guiding us, even when we don’t understand.

Nat was one of those people who left her mark wherever she went. Whether through her radiant smile, her contagious joy, or those specific moments only those who knew her can truly understand.

We started working almost in the same week and, for over a year, I saw her at least three times a week. I honestly can’t remember a single day when she wasn’t smiling. Sure, she had her frustrations and challenges like anyone else, but nothing could ever dim that light she carried inside.

Our connection was unique — a mix of laughter, language swapping, advice, and pure partnership. She’s the only person I’ve never had even the tiniest disagreement with. On the contrary, we understood each other so well that I loved being her “official translator” whenever she needed.

Nat was by my side through many parts of the beginning of my journey in Australia. Together, we watched each other grow. And witnessing her progress, seeing all her excitement and every single step she took toward her dreams, was an immense privilege.

One day, she was at the bar with me trying to find someone to clean up vomit — because neither of us could handle the smell without gagging, perfectly in sync 🤢😂 — and the next day, she was finally starting her career in architecture, fighting as always, improving her skills, and chasing her goals. Man, I was so proud of that girl!

She saw me arriving, improving, and even starting my love story — she helped me plan surprises for him back in the beginning. She saw me get married (even though she got the date wrong and only realized almost a week later 🙈). She gave me advice and, no matter how crazy our schedules were, she always found a way to be present — whether face to face or through a message.

We cried together over homesickness and family longing more times than I can count. She often talked about going back to Colombia to visit her family — a trip she sadly never got the chance to make.

I can only imagine the deep pain everyone is feeling right now. This is every immigrant family’s worst nightmare: leaving everything behind with nothing but a suitcase and a dream.

But Nat had this special gift. Amazing people like her have the power to turn friends into family, building a support network so strong that even far from home, you still feel held and loved.

Here, far away from where we were born, family becomes the people we choose and the people who choose us back. I’ll forever be grateful for having chosen Nat — and for her choosing me — since my very first week in Australia. Through every up and down, she was my big sister, who sometimes felt like the younger one, but was always there. Always present. Always shining.

From wherever she is now, I know she’ll keep being with us, joyfully and lightly, living in our hearts and memories.

May God welcome you into His kingdom with glory and joy. May Mary embrace you under her mantle, and may you keep smiling and doing your crossfit up there.

Siempre te voy a amar, mi hermanita colombiana. 🌹
