By: Cece Hymes

Natalie Cole was a singer, songwriter, and actress. She was the daughter of singer and jazz pianist Nat King Cole. She won nine Grammy Awards from 21 nominations. She sold over 30 million records worldwide. Some of her songs are:

·         This Will Be

·         Unforgetable

·         Miss you like Crazy

·         Starting Over Again

·         Our Love

·         This Will Be

·         Unforgettable…with Love

·         Inseparable

Did you know that Natalie Cole pledged the Upsilon chapter of Delta Sigma Theta sorority. A lot of people always talked about how pretty her eyes were. She was a great singer following in her father’s footsteps. She had hard times and turned to drugs. As always, we have to pray for others. We never know what people are going through. Thankful for the memories and her music that she left with us.

Here are some of my favorite quotes by her:

“Life is such a gift, I just say thank you all day”

“I think that I am a walking testimony to you can have scars”

“It’s hard to be in the shadow of a Beyonce”

“I know that God has had my back, even when I was screwing up”
