Tina's family,
None of you know me and I don't know you, but in the summer of 1967 in a Peace Corps Training project in San Francisco Tina and I were very close friends. Our lives went separate ways and I lost contact with her, but I never forgot her. She made 1967 the most memorable summer of my early life. I knew that she had married, so I did not think that I would ever be able to find her. How shocked I was today, to see that she had died. I sure wish that I had seen her at least...

Ryan,
It's been a while since I've seen you or talked to you.
I'm really sorry about your mother. I talked to her shortly a couple of times, I could tell now she was reaching out. I wish I would have talked to her more, she really cared about Tim and I even though she didn't really have to. She was a warm and wonderful person with an extremely kind heart. God bless her, you and Darcy. I'll miss her and will always think of her as an angel.

Ryan - though I did not know your mother extremely well, she was a lovely person and always gracious when we met. I am truly sorry for your loss. Warm Regards

To all of Tina's family: Again Tina has brought the Kappa Alpha Theta pledge class of 1964 together. We all wish that we were meeting Tina someplace special for a reunion rather than mourning her loss. She was so interrested in all of our lives and what we had accomplished. She began a chain letter long before email was invented. It took a year for all of us to read about each others lives. I still have copies of all the letters. I will always be thankful for her invitation to the Womens...

Dear Ryan and Darcy...and all of Tina's friends - I am so saddened by the loss of Tina and her wacy sense of humor. Looking at her picture in her obituary takes me back to when we were all Kappa Alpha Theta pledges at the UofA. Tina was such fun and so pretty...and always was the life of the party. She has been a joy to know all these years. She was "the Leader" in keeping our Pledge class in contact with each other and organizing our reunions for which we are all eternally...

Ryan, Darcy and all of Bobo's family,
This has got to be one of the hardest things I have ever had to do; write about my friend Tina. She was my first friend at Gallego School. We were friends for over 25 years. We have so many memories together. Know that she adored you so very much. And pride does NOT even come close to how she felt about your accomplishments. The best gift both of you gave her were those grand babies. She truly adored them all. I know how difficult that this must be on...

Ryan and Darcy,
I was deeply saddened to hear of your mom's passing. I have so many awesome memories of spending time with her and you guys! I do think of you all often and was really glad to befriend Ryan on FB (Darcy I have a request in for you :) )
You two had one of the most devoted mothers I have ever known, she was so proud of you both and when I ran into her at U of A games - she LOVED to rave about her grandkids! I will be thinking of you a lot and praying that you all will...

Ryan and Family,
Jenn called us to tell us about your Mom, we were very sad to hear of her passing. She was a very energetic and fun person to be around. We always loved her denim jacket that she adorned with different collectable pins that she always wore to the football games.

Love,

Sandi and Ernie Ramsey

I was sad to hear of Tina's passing.
She was my Pledge Mom when I joined Kappa Alpha Theta in 1965. I admired her so much. I named my first daughter after her.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family at this difficult time. May memories comfort you all.
