Tina left us peacefully, surrounded by Brian/family-friends on June 21, 2023. She was born in Chicago, Illinois on May 16, 1969. Tina lived in the Chicagoland area where she later met the love of her life, Brian Trost. They were married in Minneapolis on Friday the 13th of November in 1998, Tina and Brian moved to the Chicago and later spend most of their time living in Oak Park and finally moving her the lake in Wilmette. They lived a good life together as they worked hard and lived life to its fullest. Tina had a passion for baking and anyone close to her knew how incredible her creations were. Tina worked for 30 years in the Circuit Court of Cook county as a court clerk and trainer and retired 2020. Outside of her duties in the court room, she was also know as the social media guru for the iconic Chicago record label, WaxTrax!. During the COVID lock down, Tina became an active member on Twitch. Know as "DollbabyTina", she modded many DJs on Twitch and help to build a community online. Tina is survived by her beloved husband Brian and is also survived by her father Alex Sosa and siblings, Cindy (Bill) Gorman, Lorrie (Michael) Rink and Mark Sosa. She was a loving wife, daughter, sister and aunt. Tina had a keen sense of humor and found the best in any situation with a hearty laugh and an incredible smile. To know her is to adore her, she was the bravest, most tenacious, loving, kind, generous, loyal woman with the heart of a warrior. She lived with conviction and had great passion for her husband Brian, their dog Morrissey and MUSIC!!

I'd met Tina back December 1987, at Peaches Records in Oak Lawn, IL. I worked with her until January 1989. Her impact on my life was immense - all done through our passion for music!

I was already a HUGE music lover with over 3,000 albums when I met Tina, but she turned me onto so many artists that were goth - especially stuff from the 4AD label like The Cocteau Twins, Clan of Xymox, Dead Can Dance and This Mortal Coil - all of which, 35 years on I´m still listening to just as often as I did in 1988! Of course, those artists would lead me to discover many others!

I so that we never had any pictures taken together, "back in the day - at the old stomping grounds". We just weren't like that back then, nor was the technology as great as it is now.

I will miss my friend, whom I'd only recently reconnected with in May 2022. She was amazing!

I met Tina through the Wellness House Pancreatic group! She was an inspiration to me, as well as, many in our group. I always looked forward to seeing her in our meetings. God rest her amazing soul. She will be missed!
