OBITUARY
Tara Marie Purvis
September 29, 1984 – November 20, 2019
PURVIS, Tara Marie On Wednesday, November 20, 2019, Tara Purvis, mother, daughter, and sister, passed away suddenly at the age of 35. Tara will be forever remembered by her partner, Marty Fowler and their precious and enthusiastic daughter, Ravyn-Renee' Marie. She also leaves behind a very dysfunctional family that she was very proud of and that loved her in every imaginable way, her unfailingly devoted mother, Jan Purvis, and sometimes annoying but always supportive sisters, Shannon Sewell and Jenna (Jacob) Purvis, and adored nieces Keira and Kenzie. She will also be forever remembered by her aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends. She was preceded in death by her father, Terry Purvis.
As we struggle with this loss, we will never forget her tenacity, wit, vulnerability, and how deeply she loved.
A celebration of life for Tara will be held Saturday, November 30, 2019 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at Hillsboro Memorial Funeral Home, 2323 West Brandon Blvd, Brandon, Florida 33511.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.HillsboroMemorial.com for the Purvis family.

I’m saddened by the news of this amazing lady who left us all far too soon. You were a great friend!! I will keep in mind all the times we shared and the fun we had. A picture of us at an after work bowling night came up on my time line. It made me laugh because that evening we shared so many laughs and a great evening. May you rest peacefully my friend. Thank you for the great times and most of all for being a true friend!

She had a heart of gold and there was nothing that she wouldn’t do for a friend, if it was within her power to do!

My Dear Cousin Tara Marie,
I am so happy we were able to encourage one another during this past year of pain and suffering. Im grateful for our conversations that at times carried us through the lonely times during the biggest battle of our lives. Although, We knew we were ready to go with God and
It Is Well with Our Souls, I am saddened that We all were left behind. Kiss our Grammy and your Daddy for me and I will see you soon Cousin, when the Lord Carry’s me to
The Sacred Place to meet y’all.
Love Always Your Cousin, Dawn Marie
THIS SACRED PLACE
A poem by: Dawn Clements
As I sit in the still of the night,
I feel the darkness try to steal my soul.
I close my eyes I see your light
and I am alone no more.
YOU MEET ME IN THIS SACRED PLACE
I call your name as I begin to see your face
Oh, come quickly Lord,
My heart is heavy my soul weeps for you, as you call to me,
I am alone no more. Your voice is calling me, Your arms reaching out, I feel your embrace.
YOU ROCK ME GENTLY
IN THIS SACRED PLACE
As I rest my head on your chest
Your arms around me, I feel your breath,
Your heartbeat become one with mine,
I feel your Grace and Mercy for my life.
YOU FORGIVE ME IN THIS SACRED PLACE
As I begin to fall off to sleep
You carry me through the darkness to my resting place,
The Angels begin to weep as they softly sing a lullaby,
You gently kiss me good night.
YOU QUIETLY LEAVE ME IN THIS SACRED PLACE
