Natalie Baird Hickey

Natalie Baird Hickey died June 25, 2017, at the age of 49.

After a valiantly fought battle against stage 4 pancreatic cancer, Natalie passed away peacefully in her home in Tehachapi.

Natalie was born to Gareth Maughan Baird and Sandra Olivia Johnson on July 30, 1967, in Murray, Utah. She was the third of seven children.

Natalie enjoyed her career as a hairstylist and color specialist. Later, she worked hard to keep everyone in line as she managed the River Ranch Lodge in Tahoe City.

She loved the beach, the ocean, sunsets at the lake, her pets, pink and white circus animal cookies; and no one could rock a pair of cowboy boots and hoop earrings like she could.

Her greatest love was for her three children, Joelle, Baird, and Bailey.

She married her sweetheart, Steven Hickey, in the LDS Salt Lake City Temple on June 21, 2014.

Natalie is survived by her children, Joelle Elizabeth Bishop (25), Baird Curtis Bishop (22), and Bailey Gareth Bishop (18); her husband, Steven Hickey; her mother, Sandra Baird Patton; her six siblings, Brian, Greg, Philip, Roger, Lynette, and Erica; as well as many extended family members.

Natalie was laid to rest at the Brigham City Cemetery in Brigham City, Utah. The same cemetery where her father, grandparents, and many ancestors are also resting.
