To my friends and family of Tina.
I have been knowing Tina for the most of our lives. She was a loving and kind mother, grandmother, sister and friend to all who loved her. Even though she was sick, she had a good word or deed to help others. The last time I saw her, we all laughed and talked about our experience growing up in Shrewsbury. Tina was a good cook and loved to be around her family and friends. I know you fought a good fight and kept the faith. There is a crown laid up in Heaven for you. My love and prayers are with the family.
