On August 14, 1975, God blessed Johnny Ray Sims, Sr. and Patricia Ann Sims with a beautiful daughter, Tiffany Sharay Sims, affectionately nicknamed “Tee” and “Tif”. She was born and raised in Meridian, MS. At an early age age accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and was a member of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in Powder Springs, GA. On Friday, July 8, 2016, God called her home and she peacefully departed this life at Wellstar Hospital in Austell, GA.

In the winter of 1997, she successfully completed the nursing program at Meridian Community College and in the spring of 1998, she received her nursing license. Tiffany worked as a nurse in various hospitals, clinics and nursing homes while residing in Meridian. She eventually relocated back to Powder Springs where she continued her work as a nurse.
