"Tara and I met when she started working at Strauss. We became fast friends and eventually stood up in each others weddings and eventually bonded over motherhood. In recent years we had lost touch but I thought of her often. I am so sorry to hear of Tara's passing and can only imagine the great loss her family feels. Please take solice in how many people are praying for you and your family as Tara was truly one in a million an no doubt will be greatly missed! God bless you and your family and help you to heal through this difficult time!"
In loving memory of
Tara Lynn Beshey
