Natalie Marie Naro was born May 12th, 1985 in Arlington, Texas. He mother was a woman's advocate for abused women and children around the surrounding cities and her father was the owner of a large contracting company. She was the only child of the two which left her to have a wild imagination about things and develop somewhat of an anti-social personalty. She never knew why she was the only child, if it was because they never wanted children or that her mother couldn't and she never sought to ask. He parents both lived very busy lives that seemed to leave her at home with the babysitter that would have rather been doing something else and spending her parents money elsewhere. The girl was nice to her though, but always seemed to have some sort of dislocated bond as well. Growing up, however was just like any other child out there, school, homework, television, being grounded when she was in trouble. They weren't any easier on her that someone with more than one child was, and they were too hard on her either.
Though at the end of middle school, Natalie seemed to blossom out into a bright and shining young lady. She was breaking out of her shell and speaking for the class, wanting to be involved in the student government and other events like that. Something about her, possibly with her mother's influence and stamina made her want to be a person that helped out other people. She didn't know what she wanted to do yet, but she knew that she wanted to help in someway or another. In high school she was somewhat of a laughing stock when she ran for student president and all of that seeing as she was always against someone much more admirable than her, yet she always had very good points and a way to speak that made people want to listen to her. She won her senior year and led the class into good things for the classes below them.
Going to college in Dallas and getting a degree in sociology she had plans of what she wanted to do. She just never really knew how to go about doing it. She wanted to work for, or run a halfway house for recently rehabilitated drug addicts, a safe place for them to go and be able to deal with everything and being out in the real world. Little did she know when she packed up and moved out to Crocker Park, in the Summer of 2009 that she would find that opportunity. Meeting someone online (as dangerous as it seems) they were also looking for something of that nature, something to help people. Getting a loan for an old bed and breakfast, near the beach they started their "hope for recovery" program where they took people from the rehab center on a volunteer basis and offered them a room and a way to learn to live, with resume classes, internet job searches, and several other things that taught them to live on their own once again.
