Frost, Tamara Lynn (Memoriam)
IN LOVING MEMORY OF TAMMY LYNN FROST06/11/70 - 11/13/03God saw that she was
tired and a cure was not to be, so He put his arms around her and whispered,
"Come with me." With tearful eyes we watched her, and saw her fade away.
Although we loved her dearly, we could not help her stay. A tender heart
stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts and proved to
us, He only takes the best. Happy Birthday Tam! Love Mom and family
