Veronica “Tina” (Natonek) Marcec, 89, joined the saints in Heaven on Sunday, December 13, 2020. Born in Chicago, Illinois on August 7, 1931, Tina was the daughter of Joseph and Katherine Natonek. She met her loving spouse, Jerome on a blind date and celebrated 61 happy years of marriage with him. Tina lived in Belvidere, Illinois for over 50 years before moving to Hermitage, Tennessee, where she was a resident at Charter Senior Living since 2015. Tina was preceded in death by her husband, Jerome in 2012. She was the loving mother of Jerry (Wendy) of Tennessee; Evelyn (Bob) of Colorado; Michael (Kathy) of Michigan; Joseph (Janet) of Virginia; George (Melanie) of Kansas; and Raymond of Illinois. She was the very proud grandmother of 14, the great-grandmother of 10, and the great-great grandmother of 1. Tina’s family was her greatest joy, and she loved visiting them, talking with them and sharing special times with them. Always smiling, Tina enjoyed every day of her life. Up until shortly before her death, she walked a few miles each day. Her garden was a beautiful showcase. Her Polish cooking was a special treat for her family and friends. On quiet days, she enjoyed jigsaw puzzles and books, especially the Bible and spiritual reading. Tina’s faith was very important to her. She was a long-time member of St. James Catholic Church in Belvidere, and more recently was a member of St. Stephen Catholic Community in Old Hickory, Tennessee.
