She is survived by her husband, Dee Pitcher, of Cottonwood, Idaho; sister, Ramona Downing, of El Dorado, Calif., sons: George Bulgar, of Kalispell, Mont., Nick Bulgar, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho; Joseph Menard, of Spokane, Wash., and Garret Roush, of Cottonwood, Idaho; daughters: Laurie Bulgar, of Post Falls, Idaho; Keri Menard, of Post Falls, Idaho; and Bobbie Lee Tolbert, of Titusville, Florida., step-children: Casey Pitcher of Grangeville, Idaho, and Kim Beeler, of Lewiston, Idaho; and 21 grandchildren that she loved and adored.

Tina lived life with a smile on her face and light in her eyes. She was the song in her family's hearts and the sunshine in their days. A very special thanks to the Cancer Center and Hospice of North Idaho for the wonderful care given to Tina and her family.
