Natalie Ann Naumann

Natalie Ann (Grosjean) Naumann, 92, of Perrysburg, formerly of Maumee, Ohio, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, February 13, 2024, surrounded by her loving daughters. She was born on March 7, 1931, in Toledo, Ohio, to her late parents James and Esther (Frederick) Grosjean. She graduated from Waite High School in 1949 and later married her husband, James “Boomer” Naumann. Together they raised three daughters whom she dearly loved. She was a loving mother and later in life, became the best Meeme to her grandchildren. She was affectionately everybody’s “Meeme or Aunt Nat” whose tender and sincere personality touched many beyond her immediate family.

During her career, Natalie held various sales positions and eventually retired from the Lion Store in 1999, the day before it was taken over by Dillard’s. She was a faithful member at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Maumee. She was an active participant in their Bible study and lunch bunch groups, was the funeral luncheon coordinator for many years, Sunday School teacher, and was past president of the Women of the Church. She loved spending time in prayer each day with the daily readings in Holy scripture. Natalie’s greatest joy in life was her family and she completely treasured getting to travel with them. She was truly a small but mighty lady and is sure to leave a lasting impact on her entire family and all of those who knew and loved her. She will be incredibly missed.

Left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Cindy Naumann, Becky (Frank) Zemanski, Lynn (Bill) Gardner; grandchildren, Jordahn (Lynne) Garder, Rocky (Andrea) Gardner, Justin (Elizabeth) Zemanski, Casey (Chris) Rountree, Alison (Eric) Heis, Samantha (Derek) Hills; fourteen great grandchildren; sisters-in-law, Therese Naumann and Nancy Barcelona; and many nieces, nephews, and dear friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jim “Boomer” Naumann in 1999; sister, Betty Green; brothers, James and Robert Grosjean.
