Melissa Dawn Tate-Cornelius' Obituary
In loving memory of
Melissa Dawn Tate-Cornelius
February 24, 1975-March 6, 2022
After a long battle with lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and fibromyalgia Melissa succumbed
to pneumonia due to complications from Covid, and entered eternal life on Sunday March 6, 2022. She resided in the beautiful suburbs of Tucson, AZ with her husband, Brent, and her two daughters, Peyton and Afton. She channeled all her time pouring her love
and devotion into caring for her husband, children, and beloved dogs, and of course her friends as well. Anyone who knew her knew that she cherished her family and friends more than anything. She always had a radiating smile on her face while she was reading
Dean Koonz books, cooking meals for friends and family, or binge watching her favorite crime TV shows. She was a force to be reckoned with and always put others before herself. She took so many under her wing and brought comfort, unconditional love, and laughter
to anyone she may have encountered. She will be forever missed and her memory will live on through those who loved her most.
