She was born in Toms River, New Jersey on January 31, 1979 to Larry and Barbara Kowalski.
After high school, Tara worked at several jobs, but worked the longest at the American Legion in Charleston, SC, where she brought joy to everyone.
She was loving, independent and adventurous! She was a rebel at heart. She was funny and entertaining. From a little girl on, she kept us on our toes! She was tiny but mighty!
Tara is survived by her beloved daughter, Lydia Jayne Frederick, her Mother, Barbara Kowalski, her sisters, Tamera Kowalski and Mea Kowalski Lucas (Tim) of Colorado, her brothers, Ryan and Anthony of Florida, one niece and one nephew, her aunts, uncles and cousins, and her long-time companion, friend and father of Lydia, Brian Frederick.
She was predeceased by her father, Lawrence M. Kowalski, her grandparents, Merle and Bertha Robb, and Joseph and Josephine Kowalski.
