Regina Rae Tyler, better known as Jeannie or JT to her friends and family, was born June 12, 1955. She passed away on July 16, 2017. JT was a member of the Sonny’s on Waldo Road team for many years and loved the many friends she made throughout her time there. She loved listening to music, reading, fishing, and being near the water.
She is predeceased by her loving parents, Eugene Debs Carver and Helen Joyce Carver, her sister whom she adored, Carolyn Sue Jones, and her beloved nephew, Raymond Eugene Carver, aka Mortimer Snerd.

The light has gone out. The radio is quiet.
She may be gone from this earth, but she will never be gone from our hearts.

JT was an amazing person. I work with JT for a very long time at Sonny’s BBQ. During that time she had took care of my boys while I worked. When my son was going through his drug problem she was always one of his biggest supporters. She will definitely be missed.
