To our sister Tyra, In God's care you rest above, in our hearts you rest in love.

Tyra used to come into my office in Warrenton on Main Street. She was always very funny and talkative. She loved her son and often talked about her brother Jermaine. She was very nice. May the family find hope in the fact that the Bible promises a resurrection hope(Revelation 21:3,4 John 5:28,29). The true God of the heavens, namely Jehovah (Psalms 83:18)has promised this to hope therefore it will happen. We will be able to see our loved ones again.
Tara we loved and always enjoyed your company. Rodney Mack & family
You were my first niece, and I fell in love with you from the moment I saw you. I would visit and play with you like you were a doll baby. I was fascinated with you.
When you came to live with us as a teen, you were a typical teenager, always on the telephone. So we got permission from your friend's parents, picked up snacks and your friends, came home, and completed homework assignments. We talked more than we worked. We had fun.
You said goodbye and went home to glory land, and I know your dad and other family members were there to greet you with open arms. You are probably dominating the conversations and speaking your mind as I affectionately remember you.
No more pain or sorrow; you fought a good fight, and now you are at rest. Although life took us in different directions, Tyra, I love you and will miss you. Until we meet again. 🙏🏾 Aunt Addie Fripp Cobb
Sending my sincerest condolences to the family. There was never a dull moment around Tyra and her smile, laugh, and ability to make everyone around her do the same will never be forgotten. May you rest in peace. -Verniqua
