Tommie had a passion for helping others and it showed in her many years of service in retail and with the Aldine School District. As a lover of Christ, Tommie spent her free time in church. She also enjoyed gardening, watching her beloved Jose Altuve and the Astro’s, but her most favorite thing of all, was spending time with her grandbabies.
