      My wife of 4 years has died from a Giant Basilar Tip Aneurysm. She was only 29 years old and myself, our son Michael Anthony, our daughter Michelle Aviresa and our baby girl Mari Amber survive her. She has a brother, Ronald Faulk, and her mother, Debbie Mitchell, both of whom miss her terribly. As well as her Grandmother, Clara Conover and her uncle's G.A. and Neil.

      I had met my wife on a fine October day (the 12th) in the fall of 1990. She was 20 years old and I was 27. I was a part time mobile DJ/MCEE as well as working full time at Philips Electronics in Tampa, Fl. Philips was having a party and I volunteered to DJ it. My friend, one Deborah Mitchell, had been trying to set me up with her daughter, to no avail. She had also been working on Teresa, also to no avail!

      There I was setting up tapes and doing the announcements when she first saw me. I kid you not she actually asked her mother "Who is that hunk?!" Debbie told her that that is the guy that she has been trying to set Tia up with for the past 6 months. She was very surprised to say the least! She came up and introduced herself to me, which was a very good thing (I was terribly shy back then!). I remember that the first thing that I saw was those Beautiful Blue Eyes. Now I have 3 set's of Beautiful blue eyes to remind me of her. I see My Beautiful Blue-eyed, Blonde Haired Surprise every time I look into my children's eyes. God! I miss her!

      What followed over the next 9 years was a tumultuous relationship. We broke up, we got back together. We were roommates and lovers and friends, all at once or one at a time. Finally, In the summer of '93, we were at a party. I had a feeling of Destiny ... of Fate, call it what you will, all day that day. I was sure that something was going to happen that would change my life FOREVER! While we were at the party, as friends, I got pretty well buzzed. I was watching her most of the time and at one point I wondered what it would be like if she just left and I never saw her again? I realized that I could not even bear that thought!
