Natalie Christine Walters age 38, passed from her physical life on Sunday November 4th at Tri-City Hospital in Oceanside, CA. Natalie was born in Oceanside, California to her parents Tony Altamirano and Claire Jackson and raised in Bonsall, California as the eldest sibling to her brothers Alex and Mathew.

She was a beautiful wife, mom, daughter, sister, auntie, niece and friend. Forever loving and devoted wife to Jacob and dotting mother to Coral 18, Faye 14 and Gavin 12. She and her husband created and enjoyed their home with their children in the Bonsall community. She was very proud of each of her children in many ways and nurtured their individuality.

Natalie worked at La Costa Farms and Flowers off and on for many years. In addition to caring for her family, together she and Jacob ran their home business Hondo Electric. Natalie was loved in her community and will be greatly missed. Her home rarely quiet because it was the place to be. Always prepared to love, always prepared to feed, always prepared to support and always welcoming with that beautiful unforgettable smile. Natalie knew no strangers, just friends she hadn't met yet. Natalie was the nucleus to her circle of friends and family and she loved spending time with her people and was really the life of every party. She loved traveling to explore gathering cherished memories with her family. Natalie's love of cooking and baking brought her friends and family together often and their time would linger as if there were no clock to worry about. There was never a limit to her hospitality and she gave freely of herself at every opportunity. She was gracious in her willingness to help others and never hesitated to assist a stranger if she could help.

Natalie found great joy in her love of children, her love was beyond measure and she would never fail to step up to care for others children as her own.

Jacob and Natalie were childhood sweet hearts married 18 years, and together for 22. Married at Moonlight Beach overlooking the coastal sky at sunset, their lives began. Growing together they built a life characterized by others as "committed and devoted to each other no matter what". The growing pains of life were never allowed to derail their commitment or love for one another, which is shown in the life they built together.

Natalie is survived by her loving husband Jacob Walters, her children Coral, Faye and Gavin. Her parents, Tony Altamirano, Claire Jackson and her husband Jay, her brothers Alex and girlfriend Jennifer Gregory and Mathew and his wife Kathy.
