Obituary

    Ms. Tabitha Lorraine Love was August 22, 1973, in Darlington, South Carolina, a daughter of Lillie Love Sharper. She entered into her eternal resting place on Saturday, February 28, 2026, at her residence after an illness.

    She received her formal education in the Darlington County Public School System.

    “Lala”, as she was affectionately known by her family and friends, could sang a song that would make the room quiet.  She formed the first family of girls with her young cousins.  If “Lala” ever went missing, all you had to do was search the nearest bingo hall where I’m sure she would have been sitting.

    Nothing would ruin her day besides not starting her mornings … with a sausage biscuit combo and a hot cup of coffee.

    “Lala” loved telling stories about her growing up and didn’t care if we heard the same story ten times it was always funny ….

     Those left to cherish her loving memories are:  two daughters: Ko’Neisha Mouzon (Chris) and Jazmine Graham both of Darlington, SC; one son, Malcom Love of Dovesville, SC; two grandchildren: Kristan McDonald and Ka’lahMcDonald; one sister, Patricia Love of Darlington, SC; two brothers: Lorenzo Love and James Love both of Dovesville, SC; several aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews; a host of cousins, other relatives and friends who loved her dearly.

    Tabitha was preceded in death by:  her mother, Lillie Mae Sharper; a nephew, James Bishop; a cousin, Antinous Johnson; two uncles: James Love and Melvin Love.

Please keep the family and friends of Ms. Tabitha “LaLa” Lorraine Love in your thoughts and prayers.
