BRISTOL
On Saturday, October 12, Tiffany Gamache Cormier was unexpectedly taken from this world. Her family will forever remember her for the truly unique soul she was.
First and foremost, Tiffany had a great love and appreciation for music. One of her most prized possessions, an entire wall in her bedroom, adorned with beautiful renderings of many of her favorite vocal artists, painted by local artist Lori Lebel. To Tiffany music was more than just something to listen to. To those who knew her well, those chosen artists could lend an insight into her heart, a depiction of her many facets, and the truest expression of Tiffany's strong energy, zest for adventure, and everchanging emotion.
You're simply the best- Tina Turner
Tiffany was an avid adventurer and a free spirit. She was known for her amazing ability to energize and motivate those around her, even when facing struggles of her own. Her creative mind was always working on the next big idea. Anyone who joined in her endeavors could always trust there would be many laughs to be had along the way. Not only was Tiffany an amazing vocalist with a strong and soulful voice, but she was also a natural born entertainer, comedian and published poet. She had the innate ability to improvise rhymes or rewrite lyrics to any melody or song on the spot. Those around her never knew when she might suddenly break the silence, even in the most tension-filled room, by bursting into a silly song of her own composition. She loved to laugh and make others around her do the same. This was a gift she truly mastered. Whenever she sang karaoke at any party or event, there was always a chance of being delighted by a spontaneous and very comedic tailoring of the lyrics, to incorporate both the people and the occasion at hand, and to inspire laughter.
I dont need your sympathy, theres nothing you can say or do for me- Cher
Tiffany's creativity wasnt limited to the arts. She was tough, ingenuitive, and self-reliant. She was a skilled craftsman and known for tackling large building projects on her own. More recently, she had even developed a special interest in chainsaw art. She was also an avid gardener, fairly self-accomplished botanist, and an amazing home chef. Despite her sometimes rugged nature, Tiffany had a delicate side and could transform before your eyes, from professional painter/contractor to magical Disney Princess or breathtaking Red Carpet Beauty. She was always ready to adapt to any new situation and no challenge or life change ever found her daunted for very long.
Tiffany leaves behind her four children: Joseph Stango, Marykate Stango, Andrew Cormier, and Jacob Stango. She is also survived by; mother and stepfather, Michael and Mary Cratty, father and stepmother, Alan Gamache and Carla Dunn, her brothers, Alan Gamache and fianc Cynthia Villalobos, Robert Gamache and wife Melissa Gamache, Jesse Bouchard and wife Claire Joy Soliven Bouchard, James Cratty; and sister, Ashley Gamache and fianc Daniel V. Ambrosio. Additionally, Tiffany is remembered by Andrew Cormier, Joseph Stango Jr., John & Michele Deeb, godfather, Michael Jiantonio, and many, many more family members, friends, and loved ones.
I am... said I, And I am lost, and I can't, Even say why- Neil Diamond
The many sides of Tiffany could sometimes confuse those around her and even herself. There was no doubt that her life was often complicated, and that she sometimes failed to see the extraordinary person in herself that everyone around her knew and loved, but she was stronger than she ever knew. The bravery with which she faced every life change drew many people to her and led others to always call upon her for strength and emotional support. Her own doubts often made her most comfortable on her own, but her love for others would always find her answering those calls, no matter her own current situation. Tiffany's life was a never-ending expedition on a road of self-discovery that seemed endless, but she never ever gave up and her never-ending faith and optimism will remain in the hearts of all that she touched along the way. She will be missed for now, but she will remain in our hearts until we see her again.
To all who will miss her, Tiffany would want you to know, don't cry for me, laugh with me and Dont Stop Believin- Journey
