Tabitha was killed in a hit-and-run accident on the evening of February 13, 2021. She was only 34. The shock of her sudden death rippled through her family and left them with the unbearable anguish of loss and a tremendous amount of heartache and stress, not knowing who had done this.

Tabitha’s mother, Terri, said, “We would all like some small measure of closure.”

But unfortunately, to this day, the police still have no solid leads in her case.

Jaslene, Tabitha’s daughter, was referred to Valerie’s House- Charlotte County by a social worker at her middle school. She and her grandmother, Terri, had no idea a place like this existed. It was tough for Jaslene to go to group night at first.
