Tyree was very unique, one of a kind. A tall, beautiful woman with big, beautiful eyes. A very proud Leo Lioness. Even at her weakest, she stilled showed unusual strength. Tyree was so down to earth, she always kept it real. She wouldn't hesitate to tell you how she really felt about something or someone.
Tyree loved spending time with nieces and nephews. Cooking, eating and laughing for hours. They thought she was hilarious with a pinch of gangsta. Tyree was very proud of being a part of the Grove family. She always kept pictures of her Grand and Great Grandparents with lots of Indian decoration in her home.
