Tara Murray Obituary
Tara Valencia Murray was born on August 19, 1968 to the parents of John W. Murray (deceased) Marcia S. Murray in Birmingham Alabama. At the age of eleven she moved to Cleveland Ohio with her mother and siblings.

She committed the last twenty years of her career caring for elderly residents as a dedicated employee of University Manor.
Tara joined Starlight Baptist Church at young age and gave her life to Christ which she truly was faithful and god fearing.
Tara truly lived her life to the fullest through simple pleasures; enjoying her loving family, spending time and chatting with friends, snacking and spending time with her daughter who she truly adored and loved deeply who was always by her side. Although she went through many trials and tribulations, she never gave up hope. Her life journey was always tested by faith, but she always had her trust in God and knew that everything was going to be ok. She was known for the color of hair and loved to write poetry and send out special quotes daily to love ones and special friends. Her favorite singers were Toni Braxton and Whitney Houston. Tara loved her some watermelon with salt and also like to crack jokes.
In February 2019 Tara was diagnose with Breast Cancer which she fought until the end.
