Tiara Janaé Burch was born on June 28, 1995, to Yolanda J. Miner and Clarence C. Burch in Canton, Ohio. She departed this life on January 19, 2022, at the tender age of 26.

As an avid swimmer, Tiara competed on McKinley High School's varsity swim team for three years. Her mastery was the freestyle stroke. Upon graduating from McKinley in 2019, Tiara furthered her academics at Stark State College where she studied education.

Tiara had a vast love of life. With a sweet disposition, she had a passion for teaching and assisting others. Tiara maintained a considerable ability to garner friends wherever she set foot. She enjoyed being social so much that she joined her father's motorcycle club, the Canton, Ohio chapter of The Brothers of the Hammer. It was there that she was given the nickname Suggaloaf. At her core, Tiara was a daddy's girl. Thus, she always cherished any opportunity to be a part of her dad's social circle.

Paired with a vivacious personality, Tiara had an enormously caring and forgiving heart. She was the definition of a true friend to so many. Her kindness and generosity will be eternally missed.

Preceding Tiara in death were her grandmothers, Brenda C. Burch and Linda L. Miner.
