Dear Lindemulder family, I am so very very sorry for your loss. I played softball with Tami for many years at Pinery Park and I will never forget the memories I have with her. We played on many teams together and I always knew that if I made a mistake or if I was just having a bad day, Tami could always make me laugh. Although I've not spoken to Tami in a few years I know that she had a natural gift of making people remember who she was. Be proud that you raised someone who was beautiful both inside and out. Prayers to you all!

It's so devastating to hear of your passing Tami. The years I babysat you when you were younger were always the best. I couldn't have asked for a better family to know and take care of their kids. I loved rocking you to sleep at night and cuddling with you. Tami you were the cutest little girl ever! And from all the pictures and comments I see you have grew up to be an amazing lady. God sure is lucky to have gotten himself such a precious angel. I wish I could have been there to say goodbye. Watch over those who need you.
Love Becky

Please help me in this time of loss and overwhelming grief. I don't understand why my life is filled with this pain and heartache.

My heart is crushed, but I know that you will not abandon me forever. Please show me your compassion, Lord. Help me through the pain so that I will hope in you again. I believe this promise in your Word to send me fresh mercy each day. Though I can't see past today, I trust your great love will never fail me.

I knew her when she was much younger and I loved her then and still do...i wish I got to know her as the fine young woman she grew to be. She always had a smile and could light up a room with her beautiful laughter. She will be dearly missed but the memories of her wonderful spirit and beautiful soul will forever live on in all of our hearts. Because of that she has eternal life...God called her home to watch over all of us and we will see her again when our journey here is complete.

Stu & Dianne & Family – I’ve read so many wonderful things on Facebook about Tami! The kids absolutely love her. Hard not to love that kid! She’s been at our house countless times. She was one of the 20 who came over for our now-annual, day-after Thanksgiving dinner last year. Mark played bean-bag toss with her last month at Kylee’s pool party and that’s when he fell inlove with her. He loved her competitive and fun-loving spirit! After that night, he was looking forward to the next time they would play bean-bag toss again (because he is also very competitive!). We are so very sorry for your grave loss. Please accept our condolences.
