Tasha-- Babydoll I will never ever forget you. You were one of my best friends and we had some great times together! I will never forget when we went to the hockey game and the next morning you helped my mom and I at the nursing home. You got sooooo upset because the residents only got one napkin on the table and you said that wasn't fair. For the next 2 hours all we heard was they should get more than one napkin why do they only get one?! That was soo funny! I will also never forget the time Jerrod shot your shoe with his bb gun! Wow did you freak! Sweetie you were one of the funniest people ever and i'm going to miss you more than anything. I really regret losing contact with you after you moved.You were always there for your friends no matter what..thank you for that. I loved that you were soo loud and outgoing...you brought a lot out in me... Nashay- Sweetie I'm sooo sorry for the loss of your sister. I'm sending my condolences to you and all your family. Tasha was loved by many people and will really be missed. We got into some trouble together and we had some of the best times. If you ever need anything I'm here for you. Once again I'm sooo sorry for the loss of Tasha...as soon as I heard the news I started bawling. I'm sorry that things like this have to happen. This just happened in Washington a couple weeks ago but this is way more close to home. Life will never be as funny without Tasha around. I love you all very much and i'm very sorry
Tasha babe i love you and i will never forget you. I'm going to miss you always. I can't wait to see you again when its my time and i'm sure we will be laughing like always. You were one of the best people I ever knew and one of my best friends. Forever and For Always I will never look at a napkin the same way again.

May the Lord be with your family in this time of sorrow. Tasha was a beautiful young lady and I had the opportunity to spend some time with her in my Bible Study Class at Amazing Grace Ministries. She came as a guest of Gloria Juarez. You are in our prayers. God Bless and Keep you.

Each night we shed a silent tear,
As we speak to you in prayer.
To let you know we love you,
And just how much we care.
Take our million teardrops,
Wrap them up in love,
Then ask the wind to carry them,
To you in heaven above.
