Hello my beautiful mother in law 
It’s so weird and crazy to me still 
 I keep thinking I’m wake up from a bad dream and hear my phone ring for the 5th time today lol but I’m going to remember you forever think about  the good/fun times we had you know there is a lot of those. Many stories but most importantly I’m take care of your number one miss aria shay. She talks about you everyday. She brings up a memory of you and her or a toy she be like my Mamaw bought that for me. She wrote you a letter and put in mail said the mail man has to take an airplane to get to heaven . She is the reason I stay strong.You will always be remembered never forgotten I will keep my promise to you that I will forever  take care of your favorite people love you miss you I will think happy thoughts only that is what gets me through the day everyday i wake up I love you  always your little mama 🥰

P. S watching our drunk videos and pics we have together is the best thing ever so many wonderful memories 🍻😘

A memory of the past:
I remember Steve and Tammy at their wedding. Tammy looked so beautiful and regal in her gown. It was a beautiful ceremony, and the reception so lively with all the dancing!! I can still picture her and Steve dancing their first dance as man and wife- etched in my memory.

A memory of the present:
It is the day of Tammy’s “celebration of life”… as I looked out my kitchen window, I saw the most beautiful hummingbird floating just out the window for several seconds. Then later, I hear the pastor make a statement about how Tammy loved hummingbirds… and I suddenly realize it is a symbol of Tammy saying goodbye to us! God is so great.

I send my love up to you every day, my beautiful friend.  I know you are listening to the sweet sounds of reggae and dancing all day in Paradise. 
A hui hou- Until we meet again, beautiful.  Love you mucho. 

Tammy, your beautiful smile will always remain in our hearts. A memory we keep coming back to is one of our trips to the float, Larry and I rented jet skis. You said Larry let me show you how to ride. You took him and went off! It was so funny to watch. Then you guys tipped and went floating past us. Haha! It was the best. And that was you, just so full of life and fun. We will miss you. Our hearts and thoughts are with Steve, your kids and your entire family. With much love Heather and Larry. 

Tammy, 
I appreciate all you have done for me, when I first started at work you where very helpful and caring and never let anyone feel down or let anyone be upset you where always there to bring joy and happiness. Your laugh and smile brightened our day and I appreciate all you have done god bless you and your family rest in paradise Tammy!

I love you so much Auntie, to the moon and beyond.

You will forever be in my heart❤ It was a joy and honor to have known you...your such a sweetheart and you will be truly missed by all of us who were blessed to have you in our lives. Thank you for the memories and the time that we were blessed to have. Forever an Angel😇

To her family:
My deepest condolences...Keeping you in my prayers🙏

Tammy you always brightened up the room with your personality and laughter. You were kind yet bold to tell me how it is. You were there for me and my kids like a mother to them especially my daughter. For that I am eternally grateful to you. 

My brother misses you but also I can still see the spark you made in his life. We miss you. 

Love you
Richard Garcia. 

When a friend leaves such a great impression on your life that she’s thought about every single day, ..... that’s a special thing. 

I miss you Tammy. Thank you for the laughs, smiles and memories. You are a true friend. See you on the other side. 💖

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY SIS. I love you and miss you so much! See you Saturday 😘

To my sis in law. I still remember the first time Steve introduced you to Kim and I. Since that day, you’ve made my brother a very happy man. You’re a strong woman, a great mother. a supporting wife, and a great friend to many. I continue to see hummingbirds since your passing and I know it’s you just checking in. Love you, until we meet again !

Tammy Lee, my beautiful niece.  We can never understand why,  like your Dad and Mom,  you were called home to heaven so soon.  I imagine you all together now smiling and embracing.  I am so proud of the strong, successful woman  you grew to be .  We are left to miss you for now, but the memories of your smile, your laugh,  the love and joy you shared will be in our hearts until we are together again.   I will cherish my last minutes with you, your smile, your wink and your tears.  You were Chica Strong till your last breath.   Love you forever.  Aunt Lisa 💙

Dear Momma Tammy, 
You have been such an important figure in our lives. We truly thank you for sharing your family, your heart, your home and your adventures with us. 

You were a second mom in all the truest meaning to myself and jordon. You opened up your home to us about 13 years ago and never once didnt make us feel like your own kids and apart of your family. From engagements to weddings, birthdays, holidays and baby announcements, you were there for it all and a huge cheerleader in our corner. I thank you for being an ear to vent to, a shoulder to cry on, and another momma to give advice when needed without any judgment. 

Your motto to "Live the Life you Love and Love the Life you Live" is something I will remember and that momma is something you did very well. You loved your life, made the fullest out of everything and made an impact on the others around you. I will try to remember to stop and enjoy things as they happen as you did yourself and enjoy life the way you did so so much. I thank you for being such a big part of my little family's life. Thank you for extending your love, your family and your home to us. You are so deeply missed so much more than you can even have imagined and will be apart of our little family's heart always. Until we meet again. 💙

Samantha, Jordon, Brady (pumpkin head) and Baby Levi. 

My sweet, sweet Tia Tammy. You are so loved and so missed. You’ve taught me so many incredible things about life. I promise my wife and I are going to live the way you always did, like everyday could be our last. Thank you for everything. Te amo mucho chica 

Steve, Michael, April, James, Selena, & Aria...
There are no words that I can say to fix your grief but I wanted to share some wisdom. Morrie Schwartz once said, "Death ends a life, not a relationship." And I know that your relationship with Tammy is not ending. She's now at peace, watching over you, guiding you, and going to God on your behalf. Know that she will always find ways to show you she's close... a reggae song, Dodger Blue, a hummingbird, the #13... she'll find a way to tell you she's there. Most of all, every day we wake up and are gifted with life is one day closer to seeing her again. So live every moment the way she'd want you to. Smile often, love completely, and Party and Dance every chance you get! And when you need a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, or a person to party with, your HVS family will be here for you. We love you all!!

Tammy, 
We think about you always.  You will never be forgotten and you never will.  We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain to guide us through our lives until we meet again.  
Love Always,
Michael & Stacie Kahyai

My Beautiful Sister, How much I miss you ! Your Strong and Special, I am so Honored to have you watching over us from Above. I love you and Grateful you will forever be my Big/ Little Sister! #sistersrule

Mi Chica, thank you for being my everything. I miss you every second. I will always love you. 

My deepest sympathy to the Garcia and Torres family. My heart just breaks that I will never be able to text or chat with Tammy. Tammy and I have been friend since we were 5 and always kept in touch over the years even tho we live in different states   I remember every happy moment and stupid things we did growing up  I will never forget you may you RIP with no more pain .
