The one year anniversary of your loss is coming up in a few days. Please know that you are not forgotten. Although I didn’t know you, I was particularly struck by your loss as I’m in a similar point in my career right now. Rest easy Officer Corona.

Its been a few months since I took the time to thank everyone who has wished Natalie blessings. Especially those of you who are serving or have served in the military and or police agencies. Natalie was a proud American patriot who loved this country, not only on the 4th of July but every day. Her decor was red, white and blue, all the time. May God bless all of you and may God bless America.

It seems so wrong and unfair that a young lady so early in her law enforcement life was taken away from her lifetime of service. Why are the good taken so early and the evil seem to last forever? When horrible things happen to good people, the only thing to do is decide her death will somehow result in a better place where she worked. Her death has to have great positive results or it won't mean anything and this officer wouldn't put up with that. God bless you my sister, make the Sun shine brighter from Heaven, you are the angel now so look down and make each day safer and better for us all. Goodbye my sister, you will live in my heart and mind until we meet again.

Be proud family, after your grieving is done! She's with the perfect father of all of us, and will endure no more pain!

“The Badge"
She starts her shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
She drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer she is known.
She’s paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But she usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has her salary beat.
Now she doesn't know a holiday
'Cause she works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At her home she cannot be found.
She’s cursed and assaulted often,
The one whose blood runs blue.
She seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some she’s just a fool.
Her friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath her badge and gun,
She’s just another women.
She knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And she gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when she leaves for work,
She prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight she stops a speeding car,
She alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
She does it everyday.
Well, she walks up to the driver's window,
And her badge is shining bright.
She asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So she lay on the ground bleeding.
Her blood wasn't blue - Her blood was red.
And briefly she thought of her loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved her cried.
Well, they buried her in uniform
With her badge pinned on his chest.
She even had her revolver,
She died doing his best.

Officer Corona your passing has stayed with me. I think about you frequently. What happens was a tragedy. Your story and many others have inspired me to continue the legacy of keeping the peace. The world is not full of darkness because it allowed you to exist a beacon of light and inspiration whose heart was noble and answered the call to serve. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten I will remember you always. RIP Natalie

What a senseless tragedy. She had her whole career and life ahead of her. Godspeed to you Natalie. May you rest in peace and in the grace of our lord and savior Jesus Christ! You were a blessing to your family and friends, I am sure of it. It is always sad to hear of a death in general but when it it is someone so young and full of life it is even more devastating. God bless your family as well. Sgt, you raised a wonderful and beautiful young lady. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Police Officer Natalie Becky Corona will never ever be forgotten. In my initial post I don't know if I included a blessing for Becky's parents, so I will pray that God bless Becky's parents and provide them with peace and love in their individual lives.
