Offer Condolence for the family of Christina Louise Tabarini
My deepest condolences to the entire Tabarini family on Tina’s passing. I feel fortunate to have had a visit with she and Ben at the end of March, prior to her surgery.
I know there are no words that can bring you comfort at this time. I can only tell you how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Although I don’t get around to the old neighborhood as often as I would like, I will miss seeing Tina’s always welcoming smile when I do. She was a kind, thoughtful and cheerful soul, and will be sorely missed. My sincere and heartfelt condolences to you all.
I am saddened to learn of Tina’s death and will always remember her kindness while living down the street from her growing up on Midday Lane. My prayers go out to the family left behind Cathy
Tina !
Tina, I am glad I had the chance to work with you and I know you are no longer in pain which makes me happy. You were a great lady one who will be missed greatly.
Tina you will surely be missed. Although I worked with you for a short time, I will always remember your smile; how you were eager to share information; had great conversations and would call me every so often after you left just to talk.
Tina was the youngest of my DC-area cousins who visited us in WV when we were kids. She was fun, smart, and most of all — a sparkling bundle of energy. We loved having her and her siblings in our early lives, if only occasionally.
Carolyn and Brian,
