Loving Daughter/ Stepdaughter/ Sister / Aunt

Tina was born August 28, 1986 in Painesville, Ohio. A 2004 graduate of North High School, Tina enjoyed running cross-country, and she could definitely run.  

Her first job was at Plato’s Closet, where she became Assistant Manager and traveled to district meetings in Texas and Colorado.

She enjoyed dining out, shopping, fashion, and being an aunt to her adorable Scarlet, Kylie, Nicholas, Bella, and Robbie, with whom she loved playing board games, doing puzzles, coloring, and playing video games. She had the gift of gab. You were so lucky if you could get a word in!

She will be remembered for fearless personality, her trademark look of coloring her own hair, and bargains! If she found a bargain, she definitely would let you know. Shoes, boots, and coats if you were her size you were in luck…no matter how new or old the bargain was, she would grab it and always have it! I guess you could say, Tina never threw anything away!

Her life was lived to the fullest, and in spite of her troubles, she was always herself. She was loved by her family and friends, who always stood with her.

Tina is survived by her, mother Naomi Raphael (stepfather Ed Raphael), father Chris Somerville (stepmother Linda), brother Jeremy Somerville, sister Angela Somerville (fiancé Nick Gardner), stepbrother Michael (Trish) Raphael, as well as her nieces Scarlet and Kylie Somerville, Bella Raphael, and nephews Nicholas Gardner III and Robbie Raphael.

If you have any loved one’s who are fighting addiction, we as a family asks that you do everything possible to be supportive, and guide them to rehabilitation before it is too late.  Most of all work all together!
