Tierra "Tt" S. Watson

A cherished and beloved daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin, and friend, she was born May 31st, 1992 in Poughkeepsie, New York to Sylvia Williams and Milton Watson.

TT's smile could light up a room, but her heart made a room always shine twice as bright. Family was everything to her. TT was a great big sister to all of her siblings. The oldest of six, she was the leader of the pack. She was so strong and always found a way to pick herself back up in hard times. She was brave and always encouraged others to follow their dreams and not be afraid of what anybody thinks. Outgoing, adventurous, and curious about the world, TT was always making a new friend. She was there when you needed her and she loved deeply regardless of the love she got back in return.

Loved dearly by so many, TT leaves behind her mother; Sylvia, step-father; Jamel, father; Milton, sisters; Kiara, Briana, and Gabrielle, brothers; Tyree and Quincy, as well as her grandmother, Dweeta Shaw, aunts, Michelle Lesane, Valerie Smith (Arlen), Sharon Rich (Robin), Jenean Green (Roland), Samara Newkirk, Irey Cole (Howard), Bessie Buda (Adam), Nicola Watson, Carla Douglas (Frank), Nicole Wallen, Kristen Williams, Kisha Deer Coble (Vaughn), uncle, Clive Steward, cousins, and friends.

Tierra is predeceased by her maternal grandparents, Marie Newkirk and Harry Williams; maternal great-grandparents, Timmy and Eva Newkirk and uncle, Jeffrey Lesane.
