Wayne and Judy,
Tasha will be celebrating the birthday of Jesus in Heaven with the glorious hosts of angels. We will continue to lift you up in the coming days…
In Christian Love,

Dear Judy & Wayne,
Clarence and I know how hard it is for you at this time. Know that Tasha is now at rest with God and that you will be together again one day. You remain always in our thoughts and prayers.
Judy and Wayne,
Our prayers and hearts are with you folks now as they have been for many months. While your hearts are breaking here on earth, Tasha is attending a glorious birthday party in Heaven! How thankful I know you are to know without a doubt where she is. Try to remember that at the hardest times. And that for saints of God – there is never good-bye.
We love you both and are here for you anytime.
Tasha, you were more of an inspiration to us then you will ever know. Love and miss you always.
Karli Faye and family,
I have had you in my thoughts during your loss. Karli Faye, your Mom would be very proud of you that you have kept strong through her sickness and death. Fortunately, death is not permanent for Christians and someday you will see your Mom again. You continue to do your best and be your best. You are a special young lady.
Dear Wayne & Judy, Lamar, Karli,and Taylor,
We want you to know how much we love you and how much Tasha ment to us. We know the pain in you heart tonight and will be praying for you. I will always remember going to camp Blue Bird with Tasha and fun we had there. Her smile and her laugh. I know this Christmas will be hard for all of you, but she is having the best Christmas ever. May God grant you the peace that only he can give.
Love to you all, Ron and Juanita
Wayne, Judy and family,
Know that we are praying for you and with you and celebrating Tashas life here and her eternal life in Heaven! May God be especially close to you during these days of adjustment and memory. We will be praying for you in the days ahead. Thank you for the blessing you gave to us through sharing Tashas journey of faith and courage. We look forward to spending eternity in Heaven with her! You are loved!
LaMar, Karli & Taylor
We are praying for you at this difficult time. Although it is never easy to loose a sweet and inspiring woman such as Tasha, today she has the best Christmas present ever desired. She is with the Christmas present who died for us all, Jesus. We know she is cradled in His arms securely, as the angels are singing her favorite songs. Tasha has now touched the face of God.
Tom, Kathryn & Claire Brown
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dear Judy, Wayne & family,
We do not have adequate words to say
except \\\we love you and we are praying for you\\\’ We rejoice that Tasha is with our Lord Jesus Christ but the loss of her life is so great. It has been a long hard road for Tasha during her illness…and for you too. We hurt for you. We will continue to lift you before our Lord in the days to come. Love in Christ Vic & Vicki Howard’
Dear Wayne and Judy, Lamar, Karli and Taylor
I know that you are grieving the loss of your wonderful child, wife and mother. The world is a little less bright without her ever-present smile and bubbly personality. But what a glorious picture: Tasha running through the gates of Heaven on strong healthy legs right into the arms of Jesus. And what a blessed assurance that we will someday see her again. I prayed for her healing while we went to Christ Community Church and when we moved to Biltmore, I thought of her every time I\\\’d see you guys each Sunday and prayed that she would be healed. And now she has been. My prayers are with you as you go through these difficult days; please know that there are MANY MANY members of the Body of Christ who lift you and Lamar and Karli and Taylor to the throne and ask for His extra measure of comfort.

Lamar,
I am so sorry to hear of Tasha. I regret that I did not find out before the services, so I could attend. I will pray for you in the coming days, weeks, and months. I am thankful to have known Tasha and the life that she led. What faith she had. Please let me know if I can do anything for you and your family.
In Christ,
Vicki Ross

Dear Family,
I had the pleasure of attending High School with Tasha. After gradution, life took us down different paths and as you know we lost touch as so many people do. I recall running into Tasha at the store. She shared with me that she had dedicated her life to God. I was so happy to know that she was so eager and willing to serve the Lord and was not ashamed to let people know. I could see a glow about Tasha that I had never seen before. She also spoke to me about her loving family and was so proud of her beautiful children. I lost my husband almost three years ago…so I know the pain that you are feeling. There are no words to bring true comfort to you…you will find your peace only through God\\\’s grace and through the memories you have of Tasha. I have comfort in knowing she is with the Lord.

\\\No words from any wise man…can comfort the heart that has lost what it held most dear\\\”
Lamar, Karli, & Taylor,
I haven\\\’t seen Tasha, since Karli was born, we were friends in middle school – and only kept in touch by another mutual friend, since we got older and got busy with our adult lives. I\\\’m sorry that I couldn\\\’t make it to the services. I just wanted to let you know that my prayers are with you and your family as you have been thru this difficult time. And I will continue to pray for your and your family.

The God of All Comfort
3: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4: who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
