Tiffany was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.  Short thereafter, her family moved to Omaha, Nebraska where she attended elementary and high school.  In high school, she was a multi sport athlete staring in golf, tennis, and basketball.  She was the starting guard on her team that played in the finals of the Class A State Tournament.  She graduated from the University of Kansas and then obtained her law degree from the University of Nebraska.  After Law School, Tiffany worked as a Plaintiff's attorney in Omaha for five years.  She moved to Phoenix and established her own law firm specializing in wills and trusts.

 

In 2000, Tiffany met Ron Romero while playing tennis.  Just before Christmas, Ron proposed and she gladly accepted.  The day after Christmas, she was diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Cancer which she learned was aggressive and lethal.  Tiffany and Ron realized the future would be challenging.  They married in April of 2001 and the next five years were some of the best of times and some of the worst of times.  Through it all, Tiffany was determined to live her life to the fullest.  She adopted a dog, bought a home with Ron, worked her law practice and even managed a hole in one golfing just a few months before she passed.  Tiffany dies in 2006 at the age of 36.  

 

Throughout her life, Tiffany cared about others and assisting in anyway she could.  Towards the end, she would not survive this battle with cancer.  Tiffany began to see a counselor.  It was not until later that the family discovered she went to the counselor to learn how to assist her family and loved ones deal with what lay ahead for her.
