Can't believe you are gone. Your passing has affected us all. You did not go in vain. I am glad I was able to see you last month, and that you were able to see your great-niece, Marianna. I will always remember the times when you and Tiny would come over and drink with my Mom and Dad (R.I.P). You will never be forgotten. I just know that you are on the other side with Dad and Bubba, looking down on us all. See you again someday.

Uncle Tiny, Hailey, Tiffany, and Michael my heart go's out for all of you in this time of loss, Just know that anything you need or if you just need to talk please call me and I'll be there for all of you. Aunt Tara I'm going to miss you so much. You were the greatest aunt that anyone could ask for. I can remember so many good memories of Aunt Tara, but I'll will never forget how much fun i would have when Aunt Tara and Uncle Tiny would come get me for a week. When Uncle Tiny would go to work Aunt Tara would get me and Tiffany and we would go spend the day at the pool, but i never got as dark as Aunt Tara. Aunt Tara would tell me that i had to lay down and stay still and i would get dark and everyone that knew me knows that wasn't going to happen. LOL I love you Aunt Tara and will always carry with me those memories and thoughts of you being so good to me. Thank You For Being My Aunt.
