I was shocked to hear of Tina's untimely passing. I did not hear till Friday afternoon. I went to SP with Tina. I remember her as a cute little girl with a bubbly personality. The past couple of years, I spoke to Tina a few times regarding bustrips. We got to catchup on our lives since high school. The Lacerenza and Koonse family have my deepest sympathy and are in my prayers.

Dear Tom, Tommy, and Lauren,
I cannot tell you how very sad and sorrowful I am over Tina's passing. She was such a delightful and wonderful woman, so full of energy and vitality. She was such a good and caring person. I only wish now I had been able to spend more time with her to know her well. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. I deeply regret I will not be able to support you in person at a time when care and support are most important. Please know that my prayers will continue, because it is hard to learn to live each day without the ones we love. I will be in touch with you by phone soon. May God bless you and embrace you with his love and comfort. May He strengthen you and give you hope in his promise of unending life with those we love.
Love,
Pam

Dearest Tom, Lauren, & Tommy,
I am in Phoenix on vacation and regret that I will not be able to offer my deepest sympathy & love to you in person.
Tina worked with me in the middle school office and was such a delightful person -- always smiling, kind and happy. She left a wonderful gift of just being Tina to everyone she came in contact with in her life. God bless all of you.
Sincerely,
Joan Lane

Tom, Lauren, and Tommy,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have never met you, but I am Tina's cousin. Her father, Carl, was my father's younger brother. I remember when Tina was born. I was almost 10 years old and her mother and father lived in a small two room apartment. I slept in an oversized closet with a bed and stayed with them. I would help Aunt Maria give Tina a bath. She let me hold Tina and rock her while she made dinner. It was good times. I now live in West Virginia and work for the FBI. I have 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren. It is a shame that Tina and I never saw each other when we grew up. I am so shocked at Tina's death. I will keep you all in my prayers.
With Christian Love,
Susie Koonse Hale
