Kristina ("Tina") was born in 1934 in Gainesville, Florida, the eldest of three children born to Arthur and Winifred Stahl. She moved to Miami with her family in 1946.
She received a Bachelor of Science from Florida State University and taught home economics at Southwest High School in Miami from the mid-1950 to the 1970's. She had many interests and was a firm believer in lifelong learning. She married Joseph T. Meyer of St. Louis, MO in 1961.

Tina made friends easily, lived life to the fullest, loved to travel, and was very involved in community service through her various associations. She was a dedicated volunteer at the Miami Museum of Science and enjoyed teaching in the planetarium. She had enthusiasm that was contagious and loved her family, cooking, entertaining, the great outdoors, the beach, reading, and games and puzzles of any kind. She and Joe had a very large extended family of very close friends, a true tribute to them both.
