Tammy was named after the title character in a Debbie Reynolds movie from the 50s. Blue eyed and blonde, Tammy was a beauty, like her mother and her two daughters. She was a sweet woman with a heart of gold. Generous to a fault – she would help others, when she couldn’t help herself. She forgave those who hurt her. She loved to be loved.
She led a tumultuous life with many struggles but she always found something to smile about. She liked perfume and make up and pretty things. She loved being outdoors swimming and had taken an interest in gardening. She was a poet. She liked to play cards, thinking she was a shark, and laugh with friends. She loved singing with a country and western twang. Hotel California with her friends and Delta Dawn as a lullaby to her daughters.
And her daughters, she loved her daughters. She never stopped talking about them, even when distance and circumstances kept them apart.
To honor Tammy’s memory, take this time to tell the important people in your life how much you love them.
Tammy will be deeply missed by her mother, Tonia (Mike), and daughters Ashley and Jessica, and fondly remembered by her former husband, Tim Sullivan and many friends and extended family.
All are invited to attend a funeral mass on Tuesday, July 27th, at 1:30 pm at Our Lady of Lourdes parish in Toronto.
A private family celebration of Tammy’s life will be held at a later date.
