Pete and boys, I just learned of Tina's passing. I am so sorry! I loved our days working together at Blank Children's Hospital. She was so much fun and had the best personality. She would also never hesitate to speak her mind. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My Dad, Bob Stanley, lived one house up the street from the Smith family & I thought of each of them as our extended family there on Logan Ave & I just learned of Tina's passing today. I remember when her Mom, Millie passed away also at too young of an age. Tina was a Godsend to my Dad in the days of his final illnesses & I will always remember her as a wonderful treasure to me and my family. Thank you Tina for being an angel here on earth. You will be missed eternally.
