Natalie NaNa Kenton Shaw

On Friday, October 30, 2015 at 1:30 pm our beautiful daughter Natalie Kenton Shaw peacefully drifted into the arms of Jesus. We are content knowing Natalie rests free of pain until Our Lord returns. Our family moved from our home in Atlanta to Tampa in 1991. Natalie graduated from Gaither High School Class of 1997. She then continued her studies at University of South Florida receiving a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management and Marketing. During that time Natalie maintained not only a rigorous educational schedule but also successfully maintained a management position. Natalie began her formal career at ABC News as a National Sales Coordinator. “Opportunity, Action, and Result”, that was how she described her mantra. It was true. Natalie maintained her own responsibilities but formidably assisted others in their responsibilities because that is what was needed to achieve a greater result for the family at ABC. Natalie wishing to further implement her television advertising skills and utilize that creative eye she so extraordinarily possessed joined another family, Chappell Roberts Advertising as a media planner in 2012. Clients from all arenas local, national and international were confident in Natalie’s abilities to establish their market brand. Natalie will be missed by many within the advertising community. She touched the lives of people through her smile and conscientious commitment to them as clients. Our family is devastated because we must be without her. We know in our hearts that we will meet again as our Lord will be coming. At that time Natalie will meet in the air with Jesus. We her parents, Brenda Norris Shaw and Kenneth Shaw; Natalie’s sister Jessica Shaw Willman and Jessica’s husband Jayson Willman will be there, too. And the origin of the twinkle in Natalie’s eyes for the last two years Mackenzie Quinn Willman, her beloved niece will all rejoice as a family. Jack Shaw, her grandfather will walk with us. Others will be there to share that special reunion with Natalie as she had many aunts, uncles and cousins who decorated her life. Natalie’s grandparents, who preceded her in death, J.B. Norris & Sybil Nash Norris; & Susan Brooks Shaw all lovingly holding hearts. A tribute to Natalie will be held at Idlewild Baptist Church on Thursday, November 12, 2015. Family will be received beginning at 9:30 am, additionally at 10:00 am the public will have an opportunity to meet with family. Natalie’s service will begin at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Natalie’s name to St Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
