Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.

Tish, we know you are blessing all who are welcoming you into Heaven right now, smiling and cheering them on as you did for your precious Seminoles here on earth. You've been such a wonderful inspiration to those who were fortunate enough to know you here on earth. What a fighter you've been! We will miss your beautiful presence but know you are pain free. Hallelujah!
