LAMBERT, TINA MARIE, age 49 of Waterford, passed away on Tuesday, April 19, 2022. She was born on September 27, 1972 in Pontiac to parents John and Theresa (Emond) Ray. Tina graduated from Brandon High in 1990. She was a beloved waitress at National Coney Island in Waterford for 22 years and later worked at Waterford Coney. Tina loved her job and her “regulars.” She enjoyed being on the boat, kayaking, and gardening. She also was a devoted Detroit Lions fan. Tina Lambert, mostly referred to as mom, sister, daughter, grandma, friend and girlfriend. Tina was and will always be remembered as the most selfless and kind giver, in her world everyone came first. She would always do anything to help anyone without expecting anything in return. When she walked in, the whole room would light up, weather that room be at a coney with her friends and co-workers or just at home with all the people she loved and cared for. She could make the saddest person smile, especially her grand kids! She was the most honest person, even brutally honest! She’d tell you NOT to wear the shirt! She’d tell you that yes, in fact, you do look fat in that dress! Tina was always the best person to go to for support, love, care, and FOOD! Tina was a one-of-a-kind jokester! "What's that stain on your shirt?!"... and when you looked down to see it, she would bop you on the nose! Tina was always full of pranks and loved to make you laugh. She loved messing with you. Tina will be forever in our hearts and sincerely missed. More than anything, Tina loved her family and she cherished every moment that she got to spend with them. She will be remembered for her sweet and caring personality and her selflessness. Tina will be lovingly remembered by her fiancé (or as she called him, her lover), Scott Knight; children: Britany Marie Lambert, Trevor William Lambert, and Tori Ray (Trevor Wardell) Lambert; grandchildren: Harley Ray Wardell, Dallas Jane Wardell, Leia Rose Lambert, and Eliza Noel Lambert; father, John (Deni) Ray; siblings: Kristin Ray, Todd Ray, Robert Sevigny; father of her children: William Duane Lambert; fur babies: Jack, Oakley, and Oswald; and several nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, and friends.
