Tara's family would like to send a special thank you to her loving nurses who provided the best possible care at home: Cindy, Barb, Nancy, Lynn, Shae and all the others who cared for her. An additional thank you to Dr. Laurel Roach and her staff who played a vital role in her lifetime care as well as the Akron Children's Hospital care team.
Who was Tara? Despite her small stature, Tara was a fighter. For 26 plus years she beat the odds over and over. Her tenacity for life was superhuman! Her personality was feisty. Her smile was contagious. And her hugs would melt your heart. She touched the lives of everyone who met her. She taught us all what is important in life and how to love unconditionally. Who was Tara? Simply put, a blessing from God.
