I’ll miss you so – words can’t express. I never met you of course, but i’ll never forget you. As corny as it sounds – you lit up our lives, and we are all the poorer for your passing.

Goodbye Natasha :(

It’s all so very sad. She was so young, so much to live for, such a beautiful family (including hot hubby). I love her mother, she is such a great actress, and Natasha was so talented.. so sad. I’m heart broken by this.

That’s a nice tribute, but they should have done SOMETHING ELSE besides dimming the lights for a minute. Come on.

This is just the worst kind of thing to happen to anyone. I feel so badly for this family. I know what it’s like to lose a mom quickly and unexpectedly, and it is the absolute worst feeling. It changes you profoundly, and forever.
My heart goes out to this family.

such a beautiful tribute, thanks for posting, trent. I’ve always wondered what it looks like when they dim the lights on broadway.

My heart goes out to her boys you never get over losing a mother or father. This will change their life for ever. My daughter was never the same after losing her father.

This is such a sad and terrible loss. My heart and deepest sympathy goes out to her family. Her two sons, who at 12 and 13, are in a very fragile emotional development stage. These are the ages, I think, when tragedy affects you the most. What parent wants to bury their child? Natasha’s passing is so sad. Terrible tragedies like this really can make people realize that life is too short and things shouldn’t be taken for granted.
It’s amazing how quickly her condition worsened. I mean, how many times have anyone reading this blog bumped their heads and thought nothing of it?
So very sad, I hope that the family can find the solitude they need to get through this terrible time. I imagine being a celebrity makes it very difficult to grieve quietly and privately. My prayers are with them.

This is very sad and at the same time scary that a supposedly simple fall could end your life. Anyway this was a very nice tribute to her.

A beautiful tribute – and especially for Broadway to do two of these in a row (Ron Silver earlier in the week), it’s just so sad. And I’m touched that Liam, Vanessa and other family and friends were there to witness it firsthand. Sad, but beautiful and stirring.
