Mike, I didn't know your mom, and that's too bad, because after reading all the wonderful and loving words of all that knew her and loved her, she must have been indeed a very loving, full of life and smiling woman. I can't help but thinking how tickled and pleased she must be up there with the angels knowing that she has another beautiful granddaughter named after her. Mike, I'm glad you have Miranda to help hold you up in your time of need, lean on each other tightly, love and good memories of your mom will see you through. You're in my thoughts, you're in my heart..... Love Aunt Roxanne

I saw Tania around 8:00 p.m. Friday at Krogers RX and she was her usual smiling face and talking to everyone. I couldn't believe this had to happen to such a loving, caring person. I remember during Bible School how much fun she had as we watched their presention to the parents and family. My heart goes out to her family and children for their loss.

Tania was as beautiful on the inside as on the outside, goodhearted, giving, compassionate and a free spirit. The little girl that grew up across the street from me grew into a beautiful woman still stopped by to say hi to Smitty and I always with that big beautiful smile will be sadly missed.
