The Family would like to thank Gallagher Hospice Care for their support, compassion, and guidance.

A very special thanks to ALL. Dena and Jimi Miller were Tina’s caretakers for the past 2- years, and 24/7 for the past year. Bill Miller for his visitation, caring support in so many ways, guidance, and love. Debra Weber for her loving support, visitation with Tina’s favorite meal – barbecued spare ribs, and Grace Fortunato for sitting with Tina during Dr. appointments for Dena and Jimi.  As per her request, there will be no visitation, a private memorial service will be held at a later date.
