Tiffany was a devote member at Next Level Church in Fort Myers, Florida, where she was involved in many community outreach programs.  Tiffany took pride and joy in being a Ya Ya to her babies babies. Tiffany was famous for sharing her bed for “cuddle bug time,” comforting her loved ones, and giving the best tight hugs that would make your eyeballs pop out. She developed
extraordinary bonds with others that would eventually make them her family.  This trait was passed down from her mother. Tiffany was known to be a strong individual with much resilience and grit. Tiffany persevered through anything.  As a big sister and mother figure, she held it down without question. She always had our back!

Tiffany was a creative and artistic visionary. She was an incredible storyteller, illustrating and using her powerful words through various art styles and hand motions. Her fascinating mind was always thinking outside the box which led her to have compassion for all. She would always want to live in the moment and make so many memories. She believed that expression of art was a form of healing and had a vision of using the arts to empower women.

Tiffany’s favorite quotes and sayings:
“Successes is not about what you got, but who you got.”
“To the weird ones...”
