Tina was my neighbor and she loved my parents especially my dad.  We still tried to keep in touch on Facebook after I moved away. I have such fond memories of her as I was growing up. Sending much love and prayers to her family.
Love Connie Loverro DeSimone

I’ve known you almost my whole life, my beautiful, kind, generous, loving Tina.
You are my sister, my best friend and most of all my best confidant a girl could ask for.
There are way too many stories to share, and some I cannot share!
But one of our funniest memories are from many, many years ago in Flemington, NJ….All I can say is “pardon me, excuse me”……
I know you are cracking up right now!!!!
I miss you everyday and every night.  I will try to be the best aunt to your girls, Traci, Missy and Eliana.
Til we meet again, my sweet Tina.
I love you with all my heart. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Its hard to believe she is not with us on this earth anymore . She  is deeply missed . 
So many memories I have to cherish of your mother. She was  a second mom to me. 
I remember that she would always make us wear a zip up sweatshirt ( where you had  many to chose from ) to walk Taffy. 
I reminder friday nights waiting for her to come home from her shift at Pizza beat . 
Helping her and Uncle Jerry with the grocery shopping on Saturday mornings before we went to Main St . 
Trying on her cool and very fashionable clothes and taking a photo shoot! 
Summertime going to Jones beach in her cool white car . 
Getting in trouble together ( sponsoring each other) when we got in trouble and she came to the house to talk to my mom lol #busted 
I remember just hanging out at your house , eating together. I remember my job was to windex the black glass table after. 
Graduations ,Birthday parties,  bridal and baby showers , baptisms,  weddings, & Christmas eve open house!  Such wonderful memories to carry in our hearts 💕 
May her memory be eternal 🙏

Friday night at Aunt Tessie’s & Uncle Nick’s.

Tina mou,
I still talk to you very often so you know how much I miss you. 
We have such good memories— the meditation classes, Zumba, dinners, getting drinks at Besito,.. being with you was a mini vacation for me.  We talked, laughed and reminisced for so many years.  It’s very hard to put into words the wonderful pleasure that your friendship meant to me. 
I have to thank you for calling me two days before you left us.  We caught up with everything, like always.  Just know that you are in my heart forever.  
MISS YOU SO  MUCH TINA MOU.  
Love Isabel

I was a client. Every month for more than 20 years I went to Tina for a facial. She gave the best facials! Over that time, we shared so much. I never met anyone from her family but I knew about all of you. I remember her sadness when Jerry died. I remember the joy when Eliana was born and how happy she was with her relationship with John. I heard about Stella, Anthony, her brother and selling her house and so many other things both big and small. She worried about all of you and loved you all with a passion. I miss those facials, but most of all, I miss our chats and my dear friend, Tina. I know she would want all of you to be happy and to enjoy life. You can honor her memory by living your lives to the fullest. I know she would want that.

MOM
None of us will ever be the same,living in a world without you. Since God took you,life has been so heavy. It was so unexpected, such a shock. Some days i feel i am living in denial,still waiting for you to walk through the door. I know God had a plan, and needed you back.  It seems so unfair. You had such a vibrant spirit and zest for life. Everyone that knew you thought the same, what a beautiful, loving soul. Your wake was overwhelming.  Meeting tons of people that you touched, and hearing all their stories of what you meant to them. 
I know to have had a Mom like you was the biggest blessing of all. You were one of a kind. A class act. The tough as nails Bronx girl, with a heart of gold. You taught all us girls well, as we are all a chip off the old block. Strong and compassionate.  Our love of music, passion for dance, dog obsession,  all from you!
You had a presence that no one could deny. A beautiful woman with style, and a smile that lit up any room you entered. 
We were blessed to have you. It just wasn't long enough.  I will cherish every memory, and strive to keep them alive, by telling our stories . I will always speak up for myself. I will always defend and protect Missy and Eliana. I will continue to spoil Nico rotten. He misses you so much!  I hope we can all continue to make you proud.  Please guide us from above, my beautiful guardian angel.  You know that i see every sign you send me. Keep them coming! I will try my best to find happiness again. I know that was your greatest wish for me. Give me the strength to hold my head high, and remember who's daughter i am. I love you, and will miss you ,every second,of everyday , until we meet again...    Traci

The best Mom & YiaYia...
I still cannot believe you are gone. I still feel your spirit with me, with Traci & Eliana.
Thank you for your wisdom, grace, generosity, and neverending love.  For giving us life, for showing us strength and resilience. We will NEVER forget you, you will be with us always, in everything we do.
Love you Mom ♡

Happy days like this one will be remembered forever!

March 23rd 2015 - a baby and YiaYia were born!

I'll carry your spirit always, and do my best to be the fierce woman you raised me to be -- with a smile (like yours!) on my face.

You showed us strength, resilience, and always shared your wisdom.

Always with a warm smile, and full of love for your girls.

Tina was a very special person in my heart.  There was a special connection and I still feel an urge to talk to her.  It was just so sudden and there were no last words.  I do hope she is in a more beautiful place shining her brightness all around.  She was that kind of person, beautiful  and always cared.  She will never be forgotten❤️💐🙏🏻

Tina and I met at work 25 years ago when she wanted to relocate her business, and became instant friends, and sisters over the years.    A very rare gift few get to experience.  I was SO lucky.  Rarely a day went by where we'd talk on the phone, or see each other, and, of course, we shared every important milestone.  Tina was a person of passion.  She loved, more than anything, her girls......loved music......loved dancing......loved animals.  She always had a dog to adore.  Then the day came when she got the call that Melissa was pregnant.  We almost killed each other, yelling and jumping like two kids.  Neither one of us was known for our subtle personalities!!  Then the highlight of her life......Eliana was born.  I was at the hospital with her, and took the first picture of Yaya holding Eli.  She was beaming!!!
Yaya babysat for Eli every Wednesday, and there I was......right there with them.  NOT ONE TIME did Tina ever tell me not to spend the day with them.  Not once.  Those days were so 
special.  We did that every Wednesday till covid......then everything had to change for a while.  
Tina and I hadn't seen each other...thank you covid...so one day we met at the park and had about a hundred, what Tina called, "belly laughs".  We couldn't stop.  If Tina loved you, you knew it, and if SHE DIDNT, YOU KNEW THAT TOO.  We were alike in sooo many ways.  Tina's tough exterior was just that......a tough exterior.  Inside was a heart of gold......a kind woman who would do anything for anyone.  Again, IF she liked you.  We had our share of fights, but they never lasted. We lived each other too much.  I loved when she'd ask my advice and 99% of the time she'd follow it.  What a HUGE compliment.  Few 79 year old look so beautiful.  Yes, she was vain, but it didn't take much.  I could go on and on, but Im sure you feel the essence of Tina reading this.  Rest in Peace my friend and sister.  I'll miss you forever......till we meet again.

We became friends instantly 15 and a half years ago. You were warm and kind and loyal to a fault. I’m so glad we got together last month- never imagining that would be my last lunch date with you. I pray you are resting in peace and that Jerry came to welcome you. You will never be forgotten. You were just too special. Love you forever my sweet T!
All our love
Angela, Lucy, Rascal and please give my Scooby a hug ❤️🐾🙏🏻

Tina was a beautiful woman, she was caring and loving to all. She is now an angel watching over us all who loved her. I only knew her for two years but I loved her dearly. I will forever miss her smile and warm hello. I love you sweet angel, love Daria xoxo

After the college choral performance in St Patrick’s Cathedral.

On the way to Rockefeller Center. What a fun and magical memory!

She had a beautiful, warm and welcoming heart.  Aunt Tina was always there for me - St Patrick’s Cathedral  - 1988

We are so sorry to hear the sad news about Tina's passing. We shared many wonderful memories and years together with Tina when we all worked at PIzza Beat.
Our deepest sympathy to her family and may she rest in peace!
Fondly,
Val and Joe Stangarone 🙏

My beautiful Aunt Tina full of  radiant love and generous spirit.

Tina was an amazing woman that I looked up to and admired. There was never a time that we were not laughing. I was one of the lucky ones to be able to push her buttons and get away with it! I grew up with “Mrs. Casalino”  as a second mother who would always give me the best advice! I will miss her smile, her beautiful face but mostly all the laughs we had❤️🙏🏻
