Tina White, born on June 4, 1943, in the heart of Memphis, Tennessee, has left this world on September 15, 2026, after a courageous battle with pneumonia. Her journey was marked by a profound warmth, a love that resonated deeply with everyone she encountered, and a life that was both humble and incredibly impactful. Tina was the beloved daughter of Denton and Mable White. She was predeceased by her cherished parents, her brother Kenneth White, her sister Shirley White, her daughter Lydia Young, and her grandson Howard Jones. Her love and legacy are carried forward by her sons, James White and Tevin White, her eight grandchildren, Carlos Williams, Mike Williams, Keno Williams, Tonya Spears, Metra Brooks, Charles Brooks, Tia Brooks, and Tye Brooks, as well as her three great-grandchildren, alongside numerous nieces, nephews, and friends who have been touched by her kindness. A graduate of Lincoln High School in Memphis, Tina embarked on her professional journey as a waitress in her hometown, touching the lives of those around her with her genuine warmth and laughter. In pursuit of better opportunities, she moved to Maryland, where her entrepreneurial spirit flourished. Tina opened a beauty shop that became a cornerstone of her community, a place where she shared her passion for hair and beauty for many years until her retirement. Tina was never married, but she poured her heart into raising her three children, whom she loved dearly. Her hobbies included cooking, knitting, and the art of hairstyling, all done with a flair that reflected her vibrant personality. Tina had an innate ability to make those around her feel loved and valued. Her outgoing nature and genuine care for others were constants in her life, and she often prioritized the happiness of her loved ones above her own. Her presence was a source of comfort, her laughter a balm to the soul, and her love a guiding light. Tina had a remarkable ability to make people feel noticed and cherished, often with simple gestures and her unwavering support. Her legacy is not only in the family she leaves behind but also in the countless lives she touched with her kindness and compassion. A celebration of Tina’s life will be held on September 30, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. at the New Life Fellowship Church-Christ, located at 559 Robert St, Baltimore, MD 21217. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to a charity of your choice, honoring Tina’s lifelong dedication to caring for others.
