All,
What I have to say, in this short note, cannot express enough my feelings for our loss. The loss of Grandma will continue to affect us for times to come. Donna and I would like to personally thank all of you who have taken the time to write your beloved memories of Tinsey, Donna, and Tad. During her years, she loved all of us and did everything she could to be the best MOM and Grandma to all of us kids.
Since Donna and Tad’s father had past away in 1997, she took on the role to spearhead senior leadership for both of our families. Whether it is personal triumphs or tumbles, she was always there to pick up any pieces and lend guiding direction. She loved her kids, big and little regardless of circumstances.
Yesterday was troubling for all of us. Today we are weakened by her loss, but we are comforted by her memories. As we move forward, her teachings, leadership, and memories will help us focus on our lives, to love our kids, and the family’s future paths to take.
Tinsey was the guiding light for both of our families (Tad’s and Donna’s) and will be dearly missed. As her spirit catches up with her beloved husband (Donald “Lou”), their guiding light together will forever shine upon those who read these messages, friends, and family.
To all of you, who shared in her love, thank you for sharing your time, beloved experiences of her life, and how she has impacted our lives.
John Jewett (Donna's Husband)

Tad,
We are so sorry for your loss. We remember you speaking so fondly of your mother the past few years.
Your devotion as a son has always been so evident to us. We know the endless hours you have spent thinking of and taking care of your mother since her illness have been consuming.
Our love and deepest sympathy.

Donna and I have been friends for over 20 years and I spent lots of time with both of her parents. The love for Tinsey's kids, grandkids and her childrens friends was always evident. I will miss her and cherish the fond memories I have.
Donna, you are a wonderful daughter and I grieve for you and your family's loss.

A good lady and great wife. I met her shortly after her marriage to my cable splicer helper, Lou, in the 1950's. Lou was very proud to have found her. Sorry for the children's loss.

Donna and I were great childhood friends. We lived next door to each other and spent most days together. Her mother was so kind in every way. Our mothers would spend time in their backyards talking. My mother misses those days as we will both miss her too.
