  9. Dear Cousin,
    My heart is overflowing with love, sadness, gratitude, and cherished memories as I write this. Our journey together has been an incredible gift, and I’m thankful for every moment we shared, despite adulthood taking us in different directions. The laughter and adventures we shared are memories I will always treasure.
    I cherish our carefree days in middle school and high school – from all-night skates and basketball to HB’s burgers and milkshakes, sleepovers with Reese’s Puff cereal and double chocolate Pop-Tarts, and cruising Patton in the chainsaw and then the Honda. Our late-night laughter and conversations are also etched in my memory, as is the life-changing experience of us becoming mommies. I’m grateful for the impact you’ve had on my life. As we part ways, know that you’ll forever be in my heart, and I look forward to reuniting with you in Heaven.

  10. Praying for all of you! Tabitha was an amazing friend and person. Had many memorable times with her and her amazing personality and wonderful smile always lighting up every room. Not long ago we sat and did some laughing and talking about old times and wonderful memories while at our boys wrestling match, GREAT TIMES. Sure will be missed greatly!

  11. You never know how others affect your life until later. Tabitha and I were not close, but I met her through basketball where she coached my son’s team. She was fair, kind, and cared about each child she came in contact with. Her kids showed my son team spirit during drills and made us feel included. She was a devoted mother and wife. Family was her everything. She had a big heart and spirit. This is a devastating loss. As she really did touch the lives of so many. I pray for her entire family during this time asking God to surround them and keep them as they navigate through this loss. Thank you Tabitha for your light inour lives.

  12. It’s so hard to believe she is really gone. She was such a sweet and caring person. We were really close awhile back then just lost touch. She was always on my mind how she was doing. She will be truly missed bye many but never forgotten. R.I.P. Beautiful. Praying for family and friends

  13. Life is a gift given to us. As we hold our children in our arms. May your memorize of your daughter be always in heart and the love that you all shared with her. The comforting smiles that she shared with her family always be in your hearts forever. And God’s grace will comfort the family always. Judy Gaddy You will be in our prayers

  14. Nick and Family,
    Your mother loved you dearly and I am heartbroken to hear of her passing. I’ll be praying for all of you.

  15. I’m so sorry about Tabitha. I found a scripture on JW.org that I like to share, Acts 24:15, “there is going to be a resurrection,” I wish your family the very best for the future.
