Tina Lynn Hunter Harding, 53, of Woodstock, N.B. passed away peacefully, in her own way and on her own terms, on May 10, 2019, surrounded by the love of friends and family who never left her side. Tina fought a long and courageous battle with breast cancer.

Tina gave her time to others in many ways. She was a volunteer for numerous organizations. Her main focus recently was being a advocate for those living with cancer. From her first diagnosis, Tina always said that if she had to have this horrific disease, she was determined to turn it into something good. She helped create the Living Beyond Cancer Peer Support Group with the help of other cancer survivors, and she also lobbied for the Stay Strong Program in the Woodstock area after benefiting from her time spent at the chapter in Fredericton.

Tina was born February 24 ^th , 1966 and grew up in Fredericton, NB. She attended Fredericton High School and then went on to pursue a career as a dental assistant at Holland College in Prince Edward Island, where she met many lifelong friends. She began her career in Halifax, NS and then gradually moved home to be closer to family. After her marriage and birth of her son, her family moved to Woodstock in 2008, where they were wholeheartedly welcomed and taken in by the community in so many wonderful ways. Tina's love of children drew her to a change of careers to work at the local school and daycare center.

She fully embraced her last 5 years of life by connecting with friends, building memories with family, visiting special places, including her many visits to the ocean, her happy place. Tina took each day in stride and never complained about her hard fought battle. She fought the fight of her life for her Hunter and never gave up. Her unwavering faith in God kept her strong through it all. Whenever you find a dime or see a dragonfly, think of Tina.

Tina will be forever remembered by her husband Scott, her precious son Hunter, her mother Valerie, and her brother Glen (Darcy). She will also be lovingly remembered by her in-laws Ralph and Marilyn, sister-in-law Cheryl (Denis), brother-in-law Graeme (Roddie). Tina will also be missed by her nieces and nephews Brady, Brynn, Katie, Kelly, Tyler, Casey, and Mitchel, many special aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course her fur babies. She was predeceased by her Father, Lister, maternal grandparents Laura and Jim Hachey, and paternal grandparents Vyetta and Glen Hunter.

A celebration of life for Tina will be held at the Woodstock Wesleyan Church , 340 Lockhart Mill Rd, Jacksonville, NB with Dale MacDonald and Neil Horner officiating. Visiting hours will be on Tuesday, May 14, 2019 from 10 to 11:30am, with the service following and 12:00 pm.
