Obituary

Tina Louise Slama

Tina Louise Slama, age 63, of Lincoln, Nebraska passed away November 30, 2025 at Bryan East Hospital.  She was born August 8, 1962 in Orange, Texas to Donald and Constance Slama.

Tina graduated from Lincoln Southeast High School, Class of 1980. She then attended Union College in Lincoln, receiving a commercial art degree. She was a very talented, but humble, artist.  Those fortunate to see her various pieces were amazed at the detail and emotion she put into her work.

Although her subsequent adult life was not in commercial art, the traits of a good artist carried through her professional career.  Her last employment was a Assurity Life Insurance Company in Lincoln, with a tenure of nearly 25  years.  She was loved and respected by all who knew her.

Her personal life was filled with close friends and two 4-legged children, Pepper and Cinnamon. (They are available for adoption if anyone needs 2 loving, loyal companions.)  Girls nights and trips were frequent occasions for relaxing and fun.

Tina is survived by: brother John (Deena) Slama of Clever, MO; brother Roger Slama of Lincoln, NE; nephew Robert Slama of Thousand Oaks, CA; niece Ann (Brian) Bulik of Fargo, ND; niece Kathryn (Ray) Ruotolo of Sherman Oaks, CA; grand nephew Nico Ruotolo;  and other extended family.

A Celebration of Life and Memorial Service will take place at Wyuka Funeral Home in Lincoln, NE in January of 2026.  The exact date and time will be available ASAP on the Wyuka website. In lieu of flowers, donations to Disabled American Veterans (DAV), American Cancer Society (ACS); or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) would be appreciated.
