Natalie Thurber Obituary (1985 - 2020)

Natalie Thurber, age 34, beloved daughter, granddaughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece and friend, lost her life February 10, 2020 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Natalie was born to Rod Thurber and Debbie Wright Lires on June 8,1985, in American Fork, Utah. She rocked to the beat of her own drum, and lived her life on her terms. She was fearless and determined in everything she did. She was very social and loved to be the life of the party. Some of the things we loved most about her were her sarcasm, quick-wit and contagious personality. Natalie had a talent and a love for crafts. She was an entrepreneur at heart and was successful in starting her own business. She had an amazing work ethic, and a desire to leave things better than she found it. She loved her affiliation with her Tacoma and motorcycle groups. She also had a passion for movie quotes, music and singing. She knew every lyric to every song she had ever heard. Natalie leaves behind her parents; Rod (Wendy) Thurber, Debbie (Larry) Wright Lires, her siblings; Melissa (Casey) Bingham, Mandy (Jon) Thurber, and Jesse Thurber, her fur baby, Holly and many extended family members.
