Our sincerest condolences to Kelly and Olivia. Tina was an incredibly wonderful wife, mother, sister and daughter. She took our family holiday photos for years as well as my daughter’s senior photos.
She was a very special person. I’m honored to call her my friend.
oh mom 💔 i am so lost without you and miss you with everything inside of me. i hope you’re drinking all of the coffee and dancing to all of the coldplay songs up there. i am so beyond blessed to be your daughter. i love you more than anything in the whole world mom. i hope im making you proud
My prayers for Kelly and Olivia. We first met Tina when she was a swim instructor for a parent and baby session at Gundersen, and 17 years later she took that baby’s senior photos. We were blessed to have spent time with her through all the intervening years as she shared her faith, love and energy with the children at First Lutheran. Her smile and wit will be missed.
Tina, we will see each other again someday! Until then, I’ll miss you friend. If you have any questions up there, just find Judy (my mom) and she’ll show you the ropes!
You were such a ray of light, and I’m so blessed to have crossed paths with you.
Thank you for bringing so much joy, kindness and generosity into the world. You will be so dearly missed.
