AUBURN — Natalie V. (Hildreth) Spiller finally reunited with her beloved Eddie on Tuesday, Dec. 12. You can be sure Nat and Eddie are harmonizing to Mitch Miller somewhere while dancing with the much-loved sister and brothers that paved the way for them.

Nat was born in Lewiston, the fourth of six children to Winfield Hildreth and Mavis (Bradbury) Hildreth. She married Edward W. Spiller on June 23, 1951. Nat was mostly a stay-at-home mom to her four girls, but loved her time as a volunteer at Merrill Hill School and working at Lovelett Nursing Home as the activities coordinator. One of Nana’s greatest joys was helping raise Dakota and Mariah.

She is survived by her four heartbroken daughters, Lisa (Dan) Carroll, Sandra Spiller, Karen Johnson, Robin (Steve) St. Jean; grandchildren, Dakota and Mariah Carroll, Tracey Carter, Kelly Bublack, Rick, Tammy and Monique Johnson and Ryan and Melissa St. Jean; nine great-grandchildren; her brother, Charlie (Nancy) Hildreth; sister, Mildred Van Ham; and sister-in-law, Bessie Hildreth; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank Dr. Ray Tardiff, Dr. Sarah Skelton and Amy and April from Androscoggin Hospice, all of whom made it possible for Lisa to keep Mom at home until the end.

Sandy, Karen and Robin would like to say a very public and heartfelt thank-you to Lisa, our rock, big brother and angel. You kept wishing an angel would come to Mom but we knew she had one all along. We can’t express how grateful we are to you for your loving care of Mom to the very end. We love you.
