Touch the sun those of us alive will never do/Like the fire we know not to touch too/You were an angel in an earthly way/Your smile, your looks, and the things you say/No matter what they say, in one ear and out the other/You will be missed but not forgotten, friend and mother

Tina,
It just seemed like yesterday that we were at the park watching the fireworks and hanging with the kids at Ginos.
You know how far we go back, all the way to the days of me riding my bike from Fayetteville to Oak Hill to see you. Words can't express what i am going through right now. To know that i will only see that beatiful smile and those dimples only in my memory will always be hard for me. You are truly gonna be missed by many, especially by me.
Linda, stay strong for your Grandbabies, Tina is in great hands, you no longer have to worry about her.
May God Bless you all during and after this tough time in you lives. Im going through it just like you are.
I will always love you Tina. One day we will "try again".

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I was Rickia's 2nd grade teacher at Stratton. Therefore, I met with Tina on several occasions. She seemed to be such a genuine person and loving mother. Please let Rickia know I am thinking of her during this time. I will pray for your family daily. God Bless!

Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

To the Mackey family (my other family),

There are no words to accurately express my heart lfelt sympathy for you all during this time of such great loss. Tina is such a lovely young woman and the times that I was blessed to share with you all will be cherished for the rest of my life. I have such fond memories of holiday cookout's, dinner after church, Marching band etc.

Thank you Tina for your spirit, your sweetness and your loving and kind ways. They were all part of God's Master Plan.

We the Chisolm, Thrasher & Tolber Families will continue to pray for you all during this time!

Much Love Always,


Mr. & Mrs. Chisolm

If a person dies, shall they live again? God has promised us eternal living.

When we die do we carry anything away with us? Only a steadfast trust in our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. Otherwise, bare we come into the world and bare we depart from it. But we leave behind a life of memories, love ones, as well as tears and agony.

God bless the Mackey Family, especially my little cousin Rickia. I am in constant prayer for you and our family.

I hope this moment will excite you in later days to accept Jesus Christ as your personal saviour.You have my love.

From your big cousins Mark, Eddrest, Tyreona, and the rest of the Morton family.

Dear Tina,
The valuable in life is taken so much for granted. So caught up in life pleasures and treasures or what we think it should be, we loose contact of our dreams and the people that found a way into our lives. The future eating away at our past. Not realizing how soon or how easy both can be taken away from us. It has been a long time since I saw you, however you left your mark when we where young having fun and you gave our family a gift to cherish forever. I asked about you then and I send my prayer to you now. I apologize for not been able to see you before unfortunate fate delivered you to a better place or comfortable rest. Wherever you're at keep on living the TINA way.

Ellen Bauer

To the family of Tina Marie, Please accept our deepest sympathies our dear friend. Tina was a sweet and loving mother. Tina always took the time to be a good friend and always made time to listen to everyone elses problems even as she dealt with her own. Tina was there for me as I struggled with the passing of my childs father. When I thought that darkness would always surround me, Tina always brought the light to my heart. She was a beautiful person inside and out, and her joy and inner spirit always shown through. It's hard for me to understand and accept the loss of such a special person, but at the same time I know I have been blessed just to be able to call her a true friend. And now I'm even more blessed to call her "My Angel". I don't know exactly what to say to her family, especially her babies except for I will always love and pray for you. God Bless.

To The Family of Sister Tina, Words Cannot Express The Pain You Feel In The Loss of Such A Jewel In The Eyes of God. Tina Was Such A Sweet Woman, And A Wonderful Mother To Her Children. She Was A Prime Example To The Scripture Found In Proverbs 31:10 Which States And I Quote, "...Who Can Find A Virtuous Woman..." Tina Will Be Greatly Missed By All of Us Who Knew Her Here In Beckley, W. Va. Our Prayers Go Out To The Children In This The Worst Time Of This Lives. But Rest Assured, That One Day You Will See Her Again, For Indeed, Tina Was A Soldier On The Battlefield, Who Fought A Good Fight, Kept The Faith, And Finished The Course, In The Army of The Lord. Our Prayers Are With You Today And Always. Lovingly Submitted, Minister Brian Thompson, Apostolic Lighthouse Deliverance Temple, Beckley, W. Va.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

You were always a hard worker & loved your family dearly with such a sweet spirit.You asked me to put your name 'somewhere' in my oldest daughter's name & when I did, you were sooo delighted.We enjoyed sooo many pastimes(even marching band) together.
I love you & will forever cherish our good times together.

I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday and days before that too, I think of you in silence I often speak your name, All I have now are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake with which I'll NEVER part. God has you in His keeping and I have you in my heart. My heart is broken, a part of me went with you the God called you home. I love you today, yesterday and forever. My feelings are so crushed. But I will wait upon the Lord until he renews my strength. I hear your voice all the days long and I see your smile constantly. Forever, your friend, your sister, your girl. Mad Love

My dear cousin, more like a sister I will always cherish the memories of having you in my life. How we grew up together and even lived together for a time. I'll never forget your smile, your kind and loving heart. Now you are singing with the Angels with Mom and Grandpa and so many others that have gone on before us. I promise to help look after your children because that's what family does. I miss you already so much, but we are holding on to God's unchanging hand knowing that he knows what's best.
