Tina let me start off by saying this, you are my friend we became that because u pulled up along side of me and struck up a conversation because u saw me waddle on home in the killer heat of August. I was about 4-5 months pregnant at the time you knew me and David met 6 months before so u wanted to make sure I was taken home safely,I got in that car and in an instant we started a sisterhood talking and never shutting up we became fast friends i have never met anyone she would NOT treat like they r her oen blood!!! Because we both came from the same places in life, she always said i reminded her of the younger version of her n she did NOT EVER WANNA SEE ME GO DOWN THE SAME ROADS SHE DID!!!! But you wanted more for me Tina you saw in me what I never ever saw in myself and no one can take that away from me or you!!!! You were so beautiful inside and out I just wish I could do for u what you did for me,and that was to make u see in yourself what you in me and what I saw right back in you….. Your beauty wasn’t just skin deep it was inside of you all over!!! I wish I could tell u this in person I can’t so what can I do for u now that you are gone???? Remember u as we were at our best and to remind Hailey all that u were a fighter a lover a survivor a giving understanding loving auntie tinnnna and what it was you did for us all no matter what state u were in u tried to be better u tried so hard but u lost or forgot who u were and all ur worth, however me and Hailey kaden Krista and Ethan will never ever ever forget your love hugs laughs which was just as wacky as mine was….. I will never forget what u are to me who u are to me and all u did for us…….I LOVE YOU TINA HAILEY LOVES YOU WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN YOUR TO AMAZING TO BE LOST OT FORGOTTEN YOU TOUCHED MORE LIVES IN WAYS YOU WILL NEVER KNOW TIL WE MEET AGAIN******** I LOVE YOU BIG SISTER

Sweet Tina, it is your one year anniversary of being with the lord and special thoughts come to mind. You were the daughter I never had in SC when you were a child. I have fond memories of you playing in the dirt, laughing and dancing to Michael Jackson’s songs. Life took us in different directions but reaching out to you every so often during the years made me smile. I will continue to reach out to you in prayer. I will always think of you and your sweet smile. Love you so much!
Anthony
