Well Sweet Miss Tina, as crazy as you were we all loved you!! You were the ultimate soccer/baseball/clogging mom! We don't know anyone who could handle what you handled daily. We have many fun, fond memories of you...sitting at practice, you would show up with your gang and tons of snacks for them and talk about all the great reality TV shows we loved. Of course the crazy adult party...yikes, you made me (Deanna) blush and laugh so hard!! One of my dear friends who was their that night was going through such a hard time and because of you she laughed all night long! Yes, yes and then their was the embarrassing "Scotty" night. What can I say, Scotty is a cutie and I will forever be careful with vodka. We know you are cracking up in heaven over that one. Bowling parties, Chili's, Camarillo, so many fun times!! Thanks for the fun and spirit you brought to every event you showed up at. We feel like one of the blessed people to have known you even though you made my head spin! Your smile, your energy, your sense of humor cannot be replaced. XOXOXO Tina!! Dear Scotty, Josh, Madison, Skyler, Sophie, and Chloe, I have no words to tell you 6 how very sorry we are for you all, all we can do is offer you help and support whenever you should need it. I know your house is busy with lots of people now and I know it will slow down and your need will become very clear. We want you to know we are here for you guys! Scotty if you just want a night away we can step in, if Madison wants to come see Brookie...whatever you need!! We love you guys!! XOXO Trudy, Deanna, Brooke and Gage

Funny how life works out.  I was very recently reunited with old California childhood friends via FaceBook, was just talking about Tina with my sister and mom a week ago, discussing how we wanted to find Tina again, and unfortunately we were too late to talk with her.  My mom was her dance teacher (Linda Brown) for years, until my dad retired from the Marine Corps in 1984 and we moved to Dallas, TX.  My little sister (Molly Brown) was her best friend.  She flew out to visit us for a few weeks in 1985, and we had a blast.   I am so sorry for the loss.  My favorite memory of Tina (there are many, but this one stands out) was when we were all still kids, hanging out in my sister's room, and Tina thought it would be funny to stick a pencil in each of her ears and make faces.  We all started laughing, and Tina started laughing so hard, she fell over on the bed and  ended up stabbing her ear canal.  After that, tears from Tina from the pencil stab, but more laughter as well.   She was so hysterical!  I haven't seen her in 25 years, but I will miss her forever.   RIP Tina.

Tina was always full of life.  One moment she would have a serious flash in her face and then the next the biggest smile & laugh.  I remember attending her ballet performances when she was growing up and  which she was awesome.  She loved to perform and was good at it.  She always spoke what was on her mind.  She actually is the one with the words I needed to hear in order to get through a real tough time in my life.  Thank you Tina.  You will always have a special place in my heart.  I did not talk or see her much but when I did,  it did not feel as if time had gone by.  Scottt & her children were her life and loved them with her heart & soul.  She will be watching over them.  Keep her memories alive in your hearts. 

Tina and I shared time together while I did her hair, which if you new Tina you know that was a big Job.She always shared her most intimate feelings because thats what you do in the salon with you trusted hairstylist.

We also got to spend time together with each others families and Bar B Q, going to concerts and just texting crazy notes to each other, and I will hold those days close to my Heart.

She loved Her Husband with all her heart ,body and soul. Need I mention the Love of those Five Beautiful Children. I will miss our times together

Thanks for This past Easter , you made it very special to my family. I love you and will Miss you,

I'm gonna put on my Big Girl Panties now. T

 

My daughter and I met Tina through clogging. Madison was on Rachel's team two years ago. Tina was so kind to open her beautiful home for our "end of season" pool party last summer. She was so hospitable and seemed to glow as she showed us around her new home. She had recently had her baby and she seemed to be in her element. She was taken far too young and my heart goes out the kids and her husband as they try to move ahead without her. May she Rest in Peace.
