Tiarra was a friendly, caring and very loving little girl who had packed so much of her special spirit in her short time with us.  She especially liked to spend time with her grandmother and she loved to swim.  The entire Albert Harris community, where Tiarra was a very popular second grader, was impacted by her being one of thei students even though she just recently enrolled there.  Her neighbors and friends of all ages also knew just how special she was.

Tiarra was preceded in death by her maternal grandmother; Loronia "Redd' Millner, her great-grandmother; Martha "Bunch" Millner and her great-great-grandmother; Lucille "Posse" Millner.  She was also preceded in death by gandma, Ocie Largin.
