TARA JOANN MORRIS
Cedar Rapids
Tara JoAnn Morris, 36, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, passed away on Saturday, Dec. 15, 2018.
Tara was a devoted wife, mother, daughter and sister. She was everything to her family: a teacher, caregiver, chauffeur, chef, hairstylist, therapist and so much more. She was the rock that they build their house upon. She was filled with love and life. She and Dedrick did everything in their power to show their children the love of Jesus and help them grow into the young men and lady that she was so proud of. Tara was called home too soon, but her memory will live on.
She is survived by husband, Dedrick Morris; children, Blake, Gabriel and Tasia; mother, April Bare; brother, Chad Ramey; and seven stepbrothers.
She was preceded in death by her grandmother, Sharon Gose; and father, Steven Ramey Sr.
There will be a Celebration of Life at a later date.
Please direct all memorials to the family's GoFundMe page.
