To Gary and the whole family - I was so saddened to hear of Tina's passing. My mother called me yesterday with the news. My husband Mark and I had visited Tina last summer at her home, and hadn't seen her for several years. She was just like I remembered her, just incredibly sweet and "Tina". Please find comfort in knowing you will see her again. She's gone from us for now, but not forever. We will keep you all in our prayers.

To my Uncle and my Cousin, I have great memories of you all. I have memories of playing in the backyard of your house when I was a kid. Using the neat gadgets Uncle Gary made was fun. The motorcycles were cool to look at. Aunt Tina always offered some good food and drinks. I've never forgotten and I never will. I miss you both as I send you my regards and send I my love to my Aunt who shimmers from above.
