Tina Marie Floore, age 50 of Hammond, IN, passed away on Thursday, July 25, 2024, at home.

Tina was born on May 23, 1974, in Elgin, IL to her parents: Deborah and jimmy and she was raised in Brookfield, IL.  She went to Gross Middle School and Riverside Brookfield High School. Growing up Tina had the biggest blue eyes and longest blonde hair (until she decided to cut it).  As a young girl she was into gymnastics and was in a few competitions for gymnastics in Farmington, MI and Argol High School in Summit.  In the 80s she was on The Bozo Show.  She loved to hang out with her little brother, Joe-that was her best friend.  Tina later on in life had her first baby girl, Geena in '95, and her baby boy Anthony arrived in '97.  She loved walking on the beach.  No matter what she was going through she would give the shirt off her back to anyone and would always be a listening ear.  Tina was trying her best each day to fight the battles she was facing.  tina was ALWAYS the life of the party, and one of her favorite sayings was "You wanna shot?" or "C'mon, let's take a shot!". Tina loved to dance and show off her new-found love of lip syncing.  She loved to hang out with her grandkids, they made her so happy.  She even enjoyed shopping, gardening and playing cards with her mom.  Tina will FOREVER be missed by her family and friends dearly.  May she finally be at peace.

To my mother,

May every tear that has ever fallen from your tired eyes on my behalf become a river for you in paradise.  I will forever carry you close to my heart, mom, every day and continue to make you proud like you would tell me all the time.  Kendall loves to call you "Ma" now and walks around kissing your pics. May all your pain be gone, and you may now rest peacefully.  your daughter, Geena

I began my life looking up to you, and I will spend the rest of my life looking up for you.  These last few years it was hard for me to express my love for you considering the disease that followed, but it was always in my heart.  I hope you have found peace in the stars. -your little brother
