Rhonda Zacharias lit a candleI’ve known Nanette since 1991 when we worked together at BMC Software and then she brought me on at DHL. She was an awesome friend and soo smart too. She changed my life in such a positive way and I will always love her. We had a great time on her sailboat a few years ago and I will not forget her beautiful soul. Lastly, Nanette loved her girls and she was so proud of them!

Nanette was my next-door neighbor growing up. Some of my best memories are riding bikes and she always had the faster one. We would be silly like girls often are. One of my favorite things we would do is try to make flubber in her kitchen but it would not bounce. Millie was so patient with us. Another favorite memory is riding in the back of her dad’s jalopy around the neighborhood being loud and silly. We had a great slumber parties, too. Nanette was always out for a good time and I loved her dry wit and sarcasm. She was smart as a tack and immensely compassionate for all living things. In these last years I enjoyed following her efforts as she raised Monarchs. Cyra and Shana, y’all were the pride of her life along with her “Littles” I am truly heartbroken but know that our life is in His hands. My prayers are for peace and understanding for you. Love, Lynn Paulsen

I will never forget the time she came to LA and called Rome and I to go listen to the band she was going to manage. She loved Rome’s sarcasm and he said after we saw the band, keep your day job! We had so many fun times, this is just one of them. She and my brothers Dennis and Tim had many adventures.
Dearest Shana and Cyra and family,
As you know, your dear mother was one of my very closest lifelong friends, one of the loveliest people I have ever known. She was kind, generous, loving, creative, and had such an incredible sense of humor. She brought such joy to everyone who crossed her path, I hope you will find solace knowing that she is now resting comfortably in the arms of our Lord.
Nanette was so kind and inclusive to me as Cyra’s friend in middle school. I felt that her home was my second home and the environment of love and laughter that she created is one that I hope to replicate for my son’s friends. Her love during that time was so appreciated and the teenager inside me that she helped nurture is so saddened by her lost.
Firstly I want to thank Shana & Cyra for sharing their incredible mother with me and countless others at DHL. She was like a second mom to me in so many ways mostly sharing the do's and don’ts of raising teenage daughters.
I have so many fond, fun, thankful memories of Nanette but the one memory that was a constant was the love that she expressed for her daughters and grandchildren they were that extra sparkle in her eyes. She was so talented in so many things and her adventurous spirit is one we all loved and will cherish.
Mamma Gatling you were a true friend to many and I will miss you beyond words. I will never understand these type of untimely losses but I do know that you were a beautiful, loving, faithful woman of God and I’m certain he welcomed you with open arms.
May God hold you Shana and Cyra during these difficult days and know that you will remain in my thoughts and prayers.

To the Family of Nanette,
I was so sorry to hear of the loss of Nanette. She had a funny and humorous personality. I pray that all of you will continue to remember the many wonderful experiences shared with her and that those memories will bring you a measure of peace and comfort. She will certainly be missed by many. Please find comfort in what our Loving Creator had penned for us all in the Bible at Revelation 21:4 "And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things will have passed away." This is a wonderful promise from God who cannot lie and will soon become a reality for all.
