Tina was born in Philadelphia to the late Augustus and Agnes McCann Hatgimisios. She passed away at home surrounded by her loving family. Born and raised in Fishtown, she was a devoted Eagles fan, but, according to her, she thought she was a jinx and never watched a game. She kept checking the score, even if the game was televised. Among her favorite pastimes was having a cigarette, drinking coffee and playing casino games on her phone. In her quest for the ultimate bargain, Tina frequented the Dollar Store almost every day. While spending time in Delaware, she enjoyed her flower and vegetable garden. But her happiest times was when she was with her great grandchildren and nieces and nephews. Tina was devoted to her Rosary, saying it every day, recently, she became a bit flustered when she couldn't remember the words to continue.
She was the widow of the late Ralph. Mother of Kim Hand (the late Joe). Grandmother of Albert (Brandi), Joseph (Theresa) and Matthew (Gina). Gram of Brandon, Damen, Joseph, Madison, Aiden, Robert, Nicholas and Camryn. Dear sister of Marita Dwyer and the late Harry Gibson (Roseann), Agnes Adams and Ginny Clark . Sadly missed by her fur baby Swift.
