Funeral Services for Tandy Osborn
Services for Tandy will be held on Thursday, June 5th at the Vancouver West Stake Center, located at 9728 NE 50th Ave., in Vancouver. Visitation will begin at 3 p.m. with the funeral to follow at 5 p.m.
Jen and Paul, I am so shocked and saddened to hear about Tandy. I worked with her at Nickel Ads. I met Paul one evening at Tandy's house before you moved up here. I am going to try and make the funeral tomorrow. I have appts. out of town earlier in the day and will make it as soon as I can.
We are saddened to hear of Tandy's passing. We moved away from San Jose in 1991 and the Child's family was a great inspiration to our family. We send our love and prayers to all of you in this great loss. Mark & Susan Fredrickson, Rochester, MN

Dear Jennifer and Paul,
Wow, I don't even know quite what to say. My mom received and email from Bro. Decker that she forwarded to me. It is a sad way to find out where a couple of my old friends are and what they are up to. Jennifer, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your sister and I pray for comfort for your family at this time.
I have to say I took a look at your blog and website and it was great. I hope you don't mind me saying Jen, you look fabulous!!! I am so happy for you and for all the great blessing that have come to you and Paul.
Take care and find solace in knowing that Heavenly Father has a plan and you will be together again.
Love, Amy {Brookes} Caro P.S. I am hesitant to post my contact information on a blog, but I would love to get in touch with you and catch up. I will try the contact page again sometime.
I am deeply saddened to hear of Tandy's untimely death. Tandy worked for me for many months, essentially as a "My girl Friday", maintaining order in my house while I worked at the hospital. She would cook for me and keep after my filing. The woman was a dynamo and the cooking was phenomenal. She would type these exuberant little summaries for me detailing her daily doings. I came to look forward to coming home and reading the day's "Tandy note." (She was always so enthusiatic, even about filing!)
I have missed having Tandy around for a long time; and now with her passing I feel her abscence even more strongly. My heartfelt condolences go to Tandy's family. I am so very sorry for your loss.
Tandy was one of my best friends, she was one of the closest people to me and it is so difficult to realize that she is gone. I am hoping your family is dealing with the loss of such a wonderful person as well as can be expected. I know that I will miss her everyday as you all will. She will live on in our hearts forever.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Childs and the rest of Tandy's family:
I am very sorry that work obligations and other previously arranged commitments will make it impossible for me to attend the funeral today. Please know that I am there in spirit, and would have flown out to Vancouver if my schedule would have permitted it. I will be thinking of your family today. We continue to keep you in our family prayers and pray for the healing and comforting love of our Father in Heaven to be with you at this time.
I cannot help but think of you guys today I know it must be incredibly hard for you Jen especially. I've been thinking all day about you both and about all the special times Jen that you told me about with your Sis, like the yearly girly fest, and how cool it was to have your Sister so close to live near you, and the fun you had playing with Kaylenes toys like you were lil' kids again, and how you loved and appreciated how wonderful it was to have your Sis do your makeup for your wedding and experience all the great fun and joy it is to be a mom and share it with Tandy, I'm so glad you had those special times to remember, Just hold on to those and hold on to my Bro Paul too cuz I know how very much he LOVES you and will help you through this, if theres anything you need I'm here so just call, We are all thinking of you and the whole family and wish and pray for lots of comfort during this time.
Dear Family~ We are so sorry to hear of Tandy's dilemma and struggle. She is surely in a better, more peace- ful place. We send our condolences to all of you folks and our sincere love and warm wishes in this trying time. Earl & Linda Grossen and our family
Dear Jen, I am so sorry to hear about Tandy. I am sorry I have not responded earlier, since I have been out of the country without email or phone contact. I send my deepest sympathies and love to you and your family in such a difficult time. My fondest memory of Tandy was when I was a little girl and she would come home from school and beat on Chris for picking on us little Deckers! Again, I send my love and may God comfort you and your family. Regards, Amme and family
This is the Cole Family. We've been around since childhood and remember Tandy as the enthusiastic light at otherwise ordinary situations. I remember her pinning me against the wall with her enthusiastic HELLO!, at Chris and Lorinda's wedding.
She was so full of life and I'm heart struck to see her go so prematurely.
The family is always strong in such times - and you guys are faring as well as anyone.
God bless to all of you, her children, and the rest of the family.
My heart is broken after learning of this news about Tandy. I moved away from the Portland area about 5 years ago and didn't do a very good job keeping in touch.
I worked with Tandy for several years at Auto Trader, where we became close friends. She meant a great deal to me and I will miss her dearly.
Unlike anyone I've ever met before, Tandy had the ability to make you feel like you were the most important person in her life while you were with her. She was a wonderful and loyal friend.
I've cried a lot of tears these last few days, but have also broke into bursts of laughter thinking about the crazy things we did.
I cant believe she is gone. To her family, you have my sincere sympathy. May you find some peace knowing how much she was loved.
