John,
I’m so sad to hear of your loss. I never had the pleasure of meeting Tina. But I did have the pleasure of meeting and working with you. And through that I know she was a special person. For we all carry bits and pieces of our spouse with us always and we share them through our thoughts and conversations. John again my heart is heavy for your loss and the oil field is a tight family and just know we are all thinking and praying for you and your family.

Tina was a wonderful lady. Someone that was a loving mother to me she welcomed me into the family with open arms. She loved her children and grandchildren and her husband John more than anything. I am going to miss her dearly.Â
I’m so sorry to hear of Tina’s passing, she was a sweet lady, I did her and John’s hair years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
