Natalie Anne York

Natalie York, 43, a young woman who was the brightest of lights and the most generous soul, one with the most infectious personality, passed away unexpectedly at her home in Revere on January 29, 2025. Anyone who knew Natalie, even those who interacted with her in the most mundane of ways, never felt judged, just cared for, seen, and heard, and each and every person who knew her had their lives changed for the better. Her light and love radiated everywhere she went, and it continues on, even after her passing. 

Natalie embraced life with such pure joy and excitement. She loved everything fashion and make-up, with closets and a “dressing room” that could rival high-end boutiques! She was also never one to miss a good time, and was most likely the one to initiate that good time. If there was a dance floor nearby, she was there, happy as can be, footloose and fancy free. If there was a microphone nearby, you could bet she was belting out a song by Whitney or Lady Gaga. She just loved putting on a show, and boy, could she perform!

Natalie’s compassionate heart was not limited to people. She loved animals of all kinds, especially dogs... her spirit animal. Throughout her short life, she was a Dog-Mama to countless dogs, even rescuing one in the pouring rain on a busy highway in rush hour traffic! 

Natalie leaves behind so many people whose lives have forever been changed just because of her mere presence here on Earth. To name a few, she leaves behind her loving mother, Jane (Natoli) York, and was predeceased by her father, Ronald York; her beloved sister, Meredith Sweet, and her husband, Robbie, nephew, Maxim, and niece, Riley; her life partner and best friend, John Burke; her honorary sister-in-law, Jennie Solis and her husband, Javier, and honorary nieces, Alexis and Hannah; her Uncle Lenny and Auntie Dottie Natoli, her best and oldest friend, Catherine Bruno, many other aunts, uncles, and cousins, and more best friends than can be named. 

Funeral services will be held at the Paul Buonfiglio & Sons Funeral Home, 128 Revere St, Revere, on Friday, February 7, 2025, at 9:00am with a funeral mass following at St. Anthony of Padua Church in Revere at 10:00am. Relatives and friends are kindly invited. A Visitation will be held on Thursday, February 6, 2025 from 4:00pm to 8:00pm at the funeral home. A private interment will be held at Holy Cross Cemetery for the immediate family.
