Tina was a strong and independent woman. She was a devoted wife, mother and sister. She was more than just talented. She worked as a hairdresser for many years and then opened her own shop, Reunion Hair Salon, in Indianapolis. She and her late husband were owners of Frenchy's Pub in Morgantown, where they had many close friends. She also worked for Critser's Flowers and Gifts in Morgantown. Tina loved her family and spending time with them as much as she could. After the death of her husband Ron, she moved back to Greenfield to be closer to her family. She started working for Hancock Regional Hospital Gift Shop as the manager for 5 years. There she made many new friends that loved her. They were a tremendous help for her while she battled cancer with encouraging words and a sympathetic heart. Her family wants to thank them all.

The family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at Sue Ann Wortman Cancer Center as well as the nurses at Springhurst Health Campus for their exceptional care.
