11/2023- missing you. Keeping you in my thoughts and heart ♥️

Three years. Seems like yesterday  God was lucky to receive such an Angel. We love and miss you dearly. I especially miss your “ rough morning voice” lol, our phone calls and your  venting and your laughter. I was so grateful we spent some time together. Your always in my heart ❤️ 
Love ya dear cousin. Debbie

I have gone back-and-forth on what to write about you. Truth is Tam theres no words to describe how amazing you were. No words I can even put together to tell people how beautiful and loving you were to everyone who knew you. You had this laugh and smile that would light up a Room. you would call me and we would talk for hours and just laugh. We would make random trips to the mall and shop just to hang out. Almost every Thursday morning  we'd meet at the farmer's market so we can get Keith his honey sticks.  You were supermom and it was so inspiring seeing you work with him everyday. You made him stronger and never gave up on him. We always had a good time. you were there for me every step of the way when I got married.  You were the 1st person that I called when I told you I passed the test and got into a new job. You were the 1st person I called when I found my wedding dress.  We never went a full week without talking or meeting up. You always left the sweetest messages and I listen to them every day. You were such a big part of mine and frankies life and we will forever miss you. We love you and thank you for touching our lives and showing us what a True friend is. ❤

I cannot believe I will not see your beautiful smile but I can just close my eyes and you are with me always. You are in my thoughts & prayers everyday. There are so many memories I have of you I don't know which one to share, I loved spending the weekends with you your Mom, Jean, &  Michelle especially Halloween Michelle & I would come over after school to go Trick or Treating in the rain & all kinds of weather your Mom made us Tacos, then share all the candy you girls collected. You were a loving Mom &  took care of your son like no one else could. You will be missed but never forgotten! I love you my dear Tamanne, Aunt Sandy 

Tam, words do not explain how much I miss you. Since the first unanswered call I've missed missed the beautiful light you brought to my family's life. I will always  tell Sophie how much you loved her and how excited you were to meet her before she was born I will never let Tino forget how good you were to him and how much love you showed him. We miss you today, tomorrow, and forever. I love you my beautiful tam this is not goodbye forever it's just until we meet again. I love you too much and I know your pain is now in the hands of God and has been lifted from your shoulders.  Your beautiful smile will remain in my memory forever. Sleep peacefully my angel. 

I wish I had not thought you had it all under control. I wish I had seen a weakness. I only saw an amazing mother, a beautiful woman with a wonderful laugh and amazing strength. My heart broke for all those  that you lifted and cared for and pulled up when they were down. I will aspire to be someone who knows there are no superhero’s just people who love so deeply they sacrifice themselves.  I am a better person for knowing you.

I met this amazing woman 13 years ago training her to drive the big ol' stinky twinkie school bus. She became one of my dearest friends and I will cherish all the great times and memories we had. Her son Kieth gave my son his very own first razor scooter in 2007. She was such a sweet, spontaneous, giving soul I've ever met. R.I.H. my friend till we meet again...

I just cannot believe you’re not here.  So many memories especially growing up, we spent so much time together just laughing!!  I know your in a better place and your heart and mind are at peace, but my heart is broken and my mind thinks of you every day!!  Rest In Peace cousin, Love You, until we meet again!!  P. S. Say hi to my Poppy and hug for me😘🙏🏻❤️

Twelve years ago I met this spunky little woman fast paced and all over the place tight hugs kisses With lipstick on the cheek. Glad I spent my birthday with you and Keith best birthday I had in years.  Always Wonderful friend to me and my family never forget you Tam gonna miss that big smile. Love always Shaneshia 

I miss you every hour of every day. I miss you so much. You are my person and I feel empty without you in my life.  You’ve been far more than my best friend and I love you.  

I remember your tiny body and jealous of your curly curly hair !You always had a big smile  and showed lots of teeth lol. I remember visiting Cali for the first time and seeing a grown woman instead of that little petite girl with the curly hair.  Thanks for the one on one time we had together at the “Wine  Place’ will miss your  Friday calls, your “ just have to vent” calls your excited that the kiddos are coming over calls and your  “ just thinking of you and your tribe calls  and FaceTime.  Miss you dearly “ cousin bear” lol may you Rest In Peace , and every now and then give me a shout out. Luv you. Debbie  💕🙏🏻
