The world lost a beautiful person, Tina was a loving, generous, giving person, who always had a smile, and a big hug to share, she spoke with such love of her family. We will miss her dearly, our heartfelt sympathy to John, Robert and Courtney…
To John, Robert and Courtney, Tina was an angel who was called back to our Lord. Her smile and her joy of each day, made a bad day bright. Tina will be missed. Tina was great in giving help and supplies for the Girl Scout Troop both Sarah and Courtney were a part of.
John,Robert,and Courtney, My brothers and I would like to extend our deepest sympathies for the loss of Tina. She was a genuine, loving, caring person who touched the hearts of all she came into contact with. She was a special friend to my mom and brother and for that I am eternally greatful. Her infectious smile would always bring a ray of light to even the gloomiest of situations. Life is not always fair and apparently there is a shortage of angles in Heaven and God chose the best he had. Stay strong for each other and remember that she will always be watching over each you. Love and Prayers.
Tina was a loving, caring, genuine soul. She will be greatly missed. My love and support go out to all of her family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love Mary
