My son, Tyler Allen and I were blessed to meet this amazing family of strength and love through baseball. The few conversations I had with this wonderful woman was a true statement of strength and peace throughout one of the toughest battles we face as christians, leaving loved ones at such a young age. Our deepest sympathies go out to all who loved her, this is a truly a loss in all of their lives but hopefully believing she is with God will bring you some of the strength and peace that she showed all along. May God see you through. Jim and Meg Roy and Tyler Allen

I worked with Tara at Ernst & Young and I am so very sorry for your loss. She is a special person who, without trying, could make you smile (& laugh). The months ahead will not be easy but in time, knowing that Tara is in a better place, maybe again, she will bring a smile to each of you.
