With unimaginable sorrow and deep love, we announce the passing of our beautiful daughter, Tanna Nacole Jarrell, who left this world on May 16 at the age of 45 after a courageous battle with cancer.

Born on July 27, 1979, in Opelika, Alabama, Tanna brought light and laughter wherever she went. Her heart was pure, her smile unforgettable, and her spirit unbreakable. Throughout her journey with illness, she showed remarkable strength, grace, and resilience—an inspiration to everyone around her.

Tanna loved painting, practicing yoga, shopping, and watching her son, Kross, play and coach sports. She cherished her family and the time they spent together. Her warmth, kindness, and gentle nature left a lasting impression on everyone she met.

She is survived by her parents: David (Jody) Jarrell, Cynthia (Rickie) Barnes, and Robin Jarrell; siblings: Corey (Mollie) Hill, Colby Hill, Jeremy (Dilcu) Barnes, Hannah (Shawn) Harris, and Jarod (Rhea) Prather; grandmothers: Ann Jarrell and Estell Sanders; fiancé: Aaron Rhodes; and her beloved dog, Gracie. She is also survived by numerous extended family members and dear friends who will forever hold her in their hearts. Tanna was preceded in death by her grandfathers, Ben Jarrell and Herman Sanders.

Tanna taught us the true meaning of bravery and love. Though her time with us was far too short, the impact she made is everlasting. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for the staff at Compassus Bethany House. Their care, compassion, and love were a Godsend and will never be forgotten.

A funeral to celebrate her life will be held on Tuesday, May 20th at 11:00 AM at Valley-Point Funeral Home Chapel in Lanett, Alabama with burial to follow at Cusseta Cemetery with Reverend Mark Robinson officiating.

Flowers will be accepted in her memory.

"Some people only walk this earth for a short time. Their departure reminds us that angels are watching over us."
We will love you always, Tanna.

The staff at Valley-Point Funeral Home & Cremation is honored to serve the Family of Ms. Tanna Jarrell.
