Tabatha lived her title of "little momaw" to the fullest, always ready for a sleepover with her grandbabies and ready to babysit anytime she was needed. She enjoyed all things nature and outdoors, that's where she found her peace. You could find her with her cat Heidi snuggling & watching her tablet or listening to music. She gave the best advice and loved her kids and grandkids like no other. Her son was one of her best friends and she was so proud of him. Tabatha will be missed by so many. There will be no service or visitation. She wished to be cremated and placed with her brother at his gravesite. Handley funeral home will be serving the family.

"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard, but always near, so loved, so missed, so very dear."
