Tina Martin Riener, age 60, passed away on July 23, 2026. She was born on September 23, 1965, and lived a life defined by love, compassion, and devotion to others.

Tina never met a stranger and had a remarkable gift for making everyone feel welcome and cared for. Known by many as a mother to everyone, she freely shared her love, guidance, and support with family, friends, and anyone fortunate enough to cross her path.

She was an avid fan of Elvis Presley and could often be found listening to his music. Tina also proudly cheered on the Dallas Cowboys, faithfully supporting her team through every season. Her passions brought her joy, but nothing compared to the happiness she found in caring for those she loved.

Her family and friends will always remember her warm heart, generous spirit, and the phrase she so often shared: “I love you .” Those three words became her signature expression of affection and will continue to echo in the hearts of all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Emaziah Dallas and Betty Lee (Williams) Tackett; brother, Tom Tackett.

Survivors include her daughters, Ciara Carlisle, Chelsea Martin, Megan and Cassie Tackett; Tayla Harvey, Coralyn Shirey, Jay Perkins; brother, Tim Tackett; grandchildren, Cooper Price, Amelia Price, Raylen Harvey, Samantha Harvey; and fur babies, Yondu, Spazz, and Copper.  

A private cremation was conducted under the direction of Hayes Funeral Home, 10412 Highway 6, Hitchcock, TX (409) 925-3501.
