Natalie Lynn Spandau, 62, passed away on August 7, 2026. Natalie grew up in Diamond Bar, California and spent her youth playing soccer and driving race cars. She then followed her love for skiing to South Lake Tahoe, California. Missing the desert she grew up playing in, she made her way back to Anza Borrego State Park where she spent her evenings off-roading and taking sunset photos. She is survived by her brother, Chris Spandau, and daughters, Kelsi Buts and Janelle Spandau-Buts. She was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Virginia and Theodore Spandau, and brothers, Scott, Mark, and Kevin Spandau. A celebration of life will be held, details to follow.
