Tabitha Lynn Mcdaniel

Tabitha Lynn McDaniel, affectionately known as "Tabby" to her loved ones, was a beacon of love and warmth in the lives of all who knew her. Born on January 24, 1976, in Charleston, Mississippi, Tabby's journey through life was one of devotion to her family and friends, marked by selfless care and unwavering support. Her passing on May 10, 2025, in Gulfport, Mississippi, has left a void that can only be filled with cherished memories of her kindness and spirit. Her proficient skills in nurturing those around her were evident in her commitment to her home and family. As a full-time nana, Tabby cultivated a world where love was the foundation and joy the constant companion. She took pleasure in simple things, like relaxing with her grandbabies after a day spent shopping, always seeking to create memories filled with laughter and peace. Tabby was the heart of her family, guiding them with tenderness and grace. She was preceded in death by her caring parents, Larry and Diane Stafford. The legacy she leaves behind is cherished by her beloved children, Skylar, Kennedy, Ma'dajia, and Xavier, along with her adoring siblings, Lamar Lott, Patrick Stafford, and Johnny Stafford, including her sister-in-law, Morgan Stafford. Tabby's grandchildren, Delaney, Delilah, Ay'Vianna, Demonte, Dominic, Oscar, Enzo, and Navaeh, will forever treasure the gentle moments and lessons shared with their doting Nana. Tabby's vibrant life will be celebrated by her nieces and nephews, Patrick Jr, Kaila, Jason, Lindsey, Brandi, and Katlyn, who carry forth her lessons of love and kindness. Her enduring presence in the hearts of her family will forever be a testament to the life she so beautifully lived.
