Candida Gonzalez Natowski, 87, beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother passed away, Tuesday morning, November 30th at Apple Rehabilitation Center after a brief illness. She was born November 22, 1926 in Puerto Rico, the daughter of Philip and Candida Silva Gonzalez. She was married to Henry Philip Natowski who predeceased her on September 23, 1985. They had two children.
Candida was a lead singer in nightclubs around New York City in the 1940’s and had a beautiful soprano voice that enthralled all who heard her. She made several records before marrying the love of her life, Henry Natowski and gladly gave it all up to become a devoted wife and mother.
Throughout her life, Candida enjoyed life with her family to the fullest and had many, many friends that will miss her laugh, her spunky nature, her wonderful Movie Star outfits, her compassion for those less fortunate and the beautiful singing voice that will now join the angels in heaven.
She is survived by her two children, son Henry P. Natowski III and his significant other, Chris Wilson of West Haven, Anna (Natowski) Belliveau and her husband, Edward of Norwichtown, CT. Candida was blessed with eight grandchildren, Trisha Natowski, Krista Natowski, Kimberly Frazier-Bradshaw, MD, Michael Wurth, Renee Belliveau, Danielle Belliveau, Nicole Belliveau Noonan and Lea Belliveau. She was also blessed with 12 great grandchildren.
