Tina is survived by her only daughter Sondra, her son Thomas (wife Rhonda), and her grandson Jacob as well as her siblings Karen, Anita, and Ray (wife Debbie), and many nieces and nephews. Tina was preceded in death by her spouse Charlie Seaders, grandson Nemo, her parents Elmer and Mary Sturgeon, Father in law Chuck Seaders, and her brothers Earl Clark and Stanley Sturgeon.

Tina was born on June 6, 1965 and raised in Taylor Mill, Kentucky. She moved to and built her life in Dayton, Ohio with Charlie and her daughter Sondra, and was reunited with her son Thomas. She worked at Dayton International Airport for many years and made many friends there as she was so easy to love. She loved her family, her friends, and her fur babies. She enjoyed watching Jacob play video games and going on trips with Thomas in the semi, even though she was terrified of them. She was fiercely sweet and stubborn at the same time. She was loved so much and will be deeply missed. 

Tina's Celebration of Life is going to be held at Eastwood Park in Dayton, Ohio on March 29, 2026. This will be at the Mad River Shelter from 12 pm to 4 pm. 

In lieu of flowers the family asks that you make a donation to the American Cancer Society.
