She participated in a co-ed bowling league at Sunrise for 10 years and a lady's league at El-Marko for 15 years and was heavily involved throughout her children's education.
Tammy was a loving mother and wife and the most caring and selfless person in the world. She welcomed everyone into her life with open arms and was always willing to give a hand to those in need. She loved all of her nieces and nephews like her own children and often took in many of her daughter's friends over the years and stepped in as their mother when they needed it most.
