On November 7, 2023, Tara Ann Lambourne (43 years old) passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by family after a brief battle with cancer. Tara was born on February 23, 1980 in Provo, Utah. She is a remarkable woman who radiates joy and love to all who had the privilege of knowing her. Tara’s life was abundant with cherished moments, her most valiant achievement being a devoted wife and mother. Her love story with Todd Lambourne began on December 28, 2004, and together they created a beautiful family, instilling their values of unity, love, and courage in their three children, Tennley (15), Tyker (11), and Trey (10).

Tara is a woman of many talents. She was a caring medical assistant, showcasing her thoughtful nature every day through her work in healthcare. Tara loves crafting and baking and especially supporting her children in softball and baseball. Tara enjoyed cruises with family and friends, watching and quoting phrases from movies, and cheering for the Atlanta Braves. Her life is a testament to her faith in Jesus Christ as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she served as a leader in the Young Women, Relief Society, and Primary organizations.

Tara’s life is a reflection of the scripture, “Charity never faileth,” (1 Corinthians 13:8) and she embodied this truth in every aspect of her life. Tara’s unwavering love for her family was her driving force. She leaves behind her husband, Todd, and their children, Tennley, Tyker, and Trey; her parents, Linda Parkinson, and Michael J Parkinson and his wife, Karen; and her siblings, Tylyn (Darin) Hintze, Todd (Lisa) Parkinson, and Troy (Stephanie) Parkinson. Tara will forever be remembered in the hearts of all those she touched with her kindness and love.
