Tiffany passed away at her home in Fayetteville, NC.  Saturday July 13th, 2024 a visitation will be held at Belk Funeral Home from 4 to 5pm.  Immediatley follwing at 5pm in the Belk Funeral Home Chapel will be A Celbration Of Life held for Tiffany.

She was born on August 12, 1971, the daughter of Edwin F. (Moon) Bazen and the late Naomi Haynes Smith, both of Darlington.  Tiffany spent many years serving as the Executive Administrator of nursing homes and retirement communities throughout the state. This was the perfect career choice for her as she loved working with the elderly. Her smile and energy were contagious and very often you might see Tiffany leading her residents as they danced together in the recreation room.

To know Tiffany was to love her. Her boundless energy and larger than life personality could light up a room. She never met a stranger. Tiffany loved being around people and, if you did not know her when you met her, you would soon know all about her. She was gentle, kind-hearted, and loving. Tiffany will be missed by many, as she touched the hearts of everyone she knew. If you had to describe her in just two words, it would be "perpetual motion."

In high school Tiffany served as head cheerleader of the St. John's High School cheerleading squad, a position she took very seriously. Cheering was her first career choice, and her daddy had to remind her that cheering was not a job and, therefore, she would not receive a salary.

She was a huge fan of heavy metal hard rock bands. Her favorite of all time being Motley Crew. On occasion, she persuaded her daddy to attend concerts with her. Her daddy was one of her favorite people to hang out with.

Tiffany is survived by her father Edwin F. (Moon) Bazen and stepmother, Pat F. Bazen; stepfather, Dave Smith; stepbrother Jeff Chandler, sister Wendy B. (Robbie) Isgett; nephews, Dylan Isgett and Clayton Robert Isgett and her aunt, Rose B. Briggs. She also leaves behind the love of her heart, her little Yorkie, Motley.
