She had the ability to light up a room and enrich those lives around her. Tina is known for her laugh and voice that we will cherish and miss. Every year Tina looked forward to the Pumpkin Show and Backwoods Fest that she attended with close family and friends. She found her strength and worship through her family at Cypress Church. She loved all animals and fought dearly to save as many as she could.
She was diagnosed with cancer in October, 2019. She accepted the challenge as Tina would with any challenge, she's faced in her life; full of grace, determination and positive attitude. She never gave up on the power of prayer to fight this disease.
