Hey Tootie,
I am so grateful to have known you and worked with you at the Tennessean. What a trooper and a wonderful person you are. God needed a special person in Heaven to take care of everything from the animals to people needing someone to talk to and that person was you. You are pain free and that is wonderful.
I will treasure those moments at the paper when you and Patricia were always waiting on each other at the end of the day to leave. You both were so funny. I will leave you with these instructions, "don't forget to drain your lily".

Dear Cuz, your kindness, gentleness and love of all creatures great and small will always be in my heart. With you, it didn't matter how long ago we had talked, it was like we just picked up the conversation where we left off. In reading a few of the comments posted, I know you touched many others the same way. You walked what you talked – never once did I hear you complain and I learned a lot from you. You set an incredible example for others.
I know Aunt Marlene, Nana and Pa and others are rejoicing to have you with them.
If indeed all dogs and horses go to Heaven too – well, I can only imagine you with our many four legged friends from your dog Pepper, to Sally, to Rebel and so many more.
May you ride in the greenest of pastures under the bluest of skies Tina.
You were an awesome cousin and awesome friend. You will always be in my heart.

Tina,
I was blessed to have known and work with you, and The Tennessean was more blessed to have you represent them. We had both our good times and also our tough love moments, but through it all, you made me a better me. Your life is a shining example of how to face adversity with faith, fight, and dignity! I'm glad you are now resting in the arms of Jesus! No more pain and suffering! Thanks for blessing us with your life. You will be missed Tina Weena!(oh how she hated my pet name):-)

Tina was a wonderful friend and co-worker. She found light and humor in every person and situation she encountered. Tina loved and cared for animals and all dogs held a special place in her heart. She will be greatly missed by her friends and family.

Tina,
I will always remember you with a smile, a great laugh and a woman of great character. I appreciated the time spent with you while I worked at The Tennessean. Not many people have the ability to change someone just by being in their presence, but you had that gift.
A superhero? Not on Monday's (he he)
A saint? I don't think so, and never self-professed
A leader? You betcha, but more than this...
A generous and caring woman to those who had the chance to be around her...thank you Tina. You blessed my life!
I truly believe I will see you again some day faithful warrior.
You fought the good fight...and won!

My Dear Friend,
We've know each other a long time, always kept in touch, and had a spiritual connection through all the miles between us over the years. Since our IU roommate days in 1980 to our latest visit this past August 2011, our friendship has remained strong and true. I cannot thank you enough for your continued friendship, for your strength during the last few days or your life, and your dedication to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You lived your life on your own terms and you walked through your death with self-respect. I can only hope my walk will be as beautiful.
I will miss you, my friend. But, as always, you and I will remain in touch. I will talk with you soon.
I love you.
