Frankie and Maryann,
My heart was saddened by the news that you lost your baby girl. What a tragedy! Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I pray that you will continue to trust God and allow him to heal your hearts as only He can do. May His Peace that passes ALL understanding comfort you.
As believers we know that God does not make mistakes. His ways are not our ways... nor His thoughts our thoughts. In our flesh we ask, Why? She was so young. But we ask God to change our hearts and help us to begin thanking Him for sharing Tianna with us for the time He allotted.
I know you loved her but God loved her more. She is now safe in His arms. We rejoice that she will never experience any more pain or sorrow this world could bring. She is smiling down on all of us and awaiting our arrival.
Please help those beautiful children know and remember their mom. Be a strong and positive influence in their lives. She would want that.
Your pain and sorrow will soon be replaced by fond memories. The thoughts and prayers of your loved ones are with you.
Love Ya,
Mario McCall

Tianna baby you will be missed I looked forward to seeing your smiling face everytime I walked in the shop. You've welcomed me the very 1st time I met. Never judged me & offered me very good advice when I needed it.. You were always taling care of Matt & those beautiful babies of yours even when you were tired you made sure to put every1 else 1st. I remembered thinking I want a marriage like the 1 you & Matt shared because through it all there was no him without you nor you without him. The day god called you home I began having chest pains it was the next day I realized why my heart was hurting; because we lost an angel to the angels to forever watch over us.. I couldn't make it to your homegoing from ATL but best believe I took a moment to remember & meditate on the few encounters we had & thank god for allowing me to get to know a beautiful person as you. xoxos REST IN HEAVEN T.

I met Tianna when we were in middle school. As kids, you never stop to think that one day you will say your final good-byes. Although I didn't see Tianna much since I moved to Raleigh, I never imagined having to pay my last respects and certainly not this early in our lives. I have so many memories of and with her. I can't imagine what Matt nor her parents and their families feel. I have really struggled with the news that she is gone and will miss her dearly. Tianna had a beautiful spirit and smile that will be remembered by all. I believe Tianna will live on through her children and all of the lives she touched with her smile. I know words won't ease the pain but God can and he will! Tianna, I love and miss you my friend and may you rest in peace! <3
