Tina, my best friend, wife, and mother of my children passed from this life in the early morning hours, December 7, 2005, after an extended illness. I thank God for sharing her with me this brief time. Tina proved to the world that it is not how much time you have, but how you use the time God gives you. She lived her 49 years, as Christ centered; Christian worship and her family occupied a great deal of Tina's time and energy.
Tina's mom, Lota Pinter preceded her to heaven in 2000; her father, Joe Pinter; sisters Betty Ramsey, Kathy Holmberg, and Debbie Werth; husband Rick; sons Karl Fay and Kory Fay; and daughter Kristen Fay await the time to see her again.
The family requests no flowers. Expressions of thanksgiving and memorial contributions may be given to Faith Lutheran Church – Organ Fund, 1716 Gage, Topeka, Kansas, 66604 where she spent much time
A Christian Celebration service will be conducted at 1 pm, Tuesday, December 27, 2005. Family and friends will meet in the church basement at 11:30 a.m. that day for food and sharing memories, prior to worship.
Penwell-Gabel Mid Town Chapel is in charge of arrangements.
