Condolence: I'm so sorry for your loss. I just read about Tina's passing. I taught with Tina at Roberts 20+ years ago. She was always so friendly.

Condolence From: Craig & Sonja Rizzo
Condolence: Yong - we are so sorry for your loss. We kept talking about how we needed to meet you and Tina for dinner but hadn't made plans yet. We would still love to get together with you sometime. Tina meant so much to both of us after all of the help she gave us with advice for Craig's mom. Our talks with her put us on a new path health-wise and we will be forever grateful for the gift she gave us.
You are in our prayers,
Craig and Sonja

Condolence From: Steve and Rita. Harowitz
Condolence: Rita and I send our condolences to the Zhang, Hammar and Tzivani families. Everyone who knew Tina, considered her an exceptional human being. Her warm engaging personality made all who called her a friend feel special. While long periods of time separated occasions upon which I saw Tina, she always showed interest in my life and my family. Even during her long illness, Tina seemed always aware of my life events. I have never known someone who, even in illness, was so optimistic and upbeat. She will be sorely missed.

Condolence: Our deepest condolences to all of the family members. I remember our family reunions at Whitney Point, it was great, Tina was so personable and nice to everyone. She was an angel, the last time I seen her was at my mom's memorial service in December. May she rest in peace!! Memories forever!

Condolence: Barely 2 weeks ago I watched as Tina watercoloured 3 tiny, perfect spheres ... "That's all," she said, having acquiesced to painting me something. π
Her unconditional love to please others led her to exclaim "I'm so happy for you!" so often! π΄πΎπ
And she was.

Condolence From: Celia Skandalis
Condolence: Steve, Debbie, Harry, Anne and family...how profoundly saddened I am to hear of Tina's passing. I have some wonderful memories from our childhood living on Trinity Place and growing up. From time to time I spoke to Tina and shared so many memories and catching up with our lives. She was such a delight with a beautiful heart. I loved her smile and warmness every time I was with her. She will eternally be in my memory.
We shared our love for the Lord and became instant "sisters". She is now happy and resting in the arms of her Savior. A beautiful soul. My sincere condolences to all of you.

Condolence From: Richard Strauss
Condolence: It was one of the luckiest days of my life when I was assigned to the seat in front of Tina in homeroom 247. She was a sweetheart then (and probably the most popular girl in our class of 350 students), and 50 some years later she was still a sweetheart. She was an optimist, a happy person with great faith in God, friends, and family, and a true, kind, and loyal friend. She'll be missed. I'm sad knowing that Tina isn't with us any longer, but I'm thankful that she was a part of my life. May she be a blessing to all who were fortunate enough to know and love her.

Condolence From: Bapbapa Tzivani Benham
Condolence: Today is a beautiful, sunny blue-skied day in New Hampshire. I'm sitting on a bench at Little Boar's Head just south of Portsmouth. The metal placard on this weathered wooden bench is a memorial to a family who loved this spot overlooking the sea. Its final words are FAITH HOPE LOVE, all in caps, and I feel my cousin Tina's loving spirit guiding me to this bench. I cannot attend her service, so here is my place of worship, a vista that Tina would love. I am praying, telling Tina how much I love her, as I watch the ocean inhale and exhale, back and forth. During my prayers, I watched five different flocks of geese, five large winged Vs, head south using the craggy coast as their guide. I feel the spirit on the water and riding the wings of wild creatures heading home. Like our Athena, our precious Tina.
