Sept. 13, 1969 – Dec. 17, 2024
Tina M. Goble, 55, of Bourbon, was surrounded by her loving family when she passed away at 11:42 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 17, 2024, at Memorial Hospital of South Bend. This followed a brief and sudden illness.
On Sept. 13, 1969, Tina Marie Kamp was born in Rochester to Noel D. and Judy A. Cooper Kamp. Growing up she shared her childhood with a sister, Nicholle, and a brother, Rob. Proudly, she graduated from Rochester High School with the Class of 1987.
On March 9, 2001, Tina married the love of her life, Mr. Tony Ray Goble. Together they blended their families and have shared more than 24 years of life’s adventures. The family tree continued to grow with the blessings of their 9 grandchildren, plus a new edition in early 2025.
With a strong work ethic, Tina worked at Zimmer-Biomet of Warsaw for 27 and a half years. She most recently served as senior lab lead. At home she enjoyed gardening both vegetables and planting flowers to enhance her landscape. Tina loved to read books, especially those of romance and mysteries. From her kitchen command post she took great joy in experimenting with new recipes. Tina was a stellar Amazon customer, once nominated as Customer of the Year!
Paramount in Tina's life was her family. With great pride she answered to her favorite title of Grandma Tina. She doted on the grands and savored every birthday, family celebration and especially the holidays spending time together making memories.
Left to cherish Tina's memory are her husband Tony; five children, Letitia Joy Imel, of Longmont, Colo., Damian Joseph Imel and wife Janelle, of Leicester, N.C., Dakota Allen Imel and wife Lindsay, of Bourbon, Dylan Goble and wife Alicia, Delaney Hoskins and husband Cameron, all of Warsaw; nine grandchildren, Hamilton Riley Hoff, Emerson David Imel, Everett Jack Imel, Espen Joseph Imel, Stella Grace Madsen, Opal Rae Imel, Griffin Jude Goble, Graham Lennon Goble, Scottie Joy Hoskins and another blessing due to arrive in early 2025; her parents, Noel and Judy Kamp; sister, Nicholle McLochlin, of Rochester; grandmothers Opal Kamp and Beulah Mae "Coopie" Cooper; and several nieces and nephews.
