Tammy Lynn LeClair

Tammy was a devoted mother, passionate partner, and loyal friend to many. Her heart of gold and boundless compassion touched the lives of all who knew her. She dedicated her career at The Arc, working to protect the rights of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Her legacy lives on through her love, imagination and vibrant spirit in the hearts of those fortunate enough to have known her.
