Tammy will be missed by all; she was a friend, co-worker, and had a special way of bringing out the best in everyone. Our thoughts and prayers go out to James and family.

Edith Wharton said, "There are two ways to spread light. To be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it." Tammy knew how to do both with such beauty, grace, and laughter. You will be with me always and for all time my dear dear friend. I love you.

I was so very sorry to hear about Tammy's passing.  I enjoyed working with her at CCAD and admired her greatly.  I'll never forget when Tammy, Beth and I dressed up as dance hall girls at "Rocking Al's Saloon" (the Admin Branch) for Halloween.  She was a lovely, fun, and special person.  My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time.

Jared, Lacie and family,  We are so sorry to hear of your loss.  Your family will be in our prayers.

Tammy was the first person I met when my family moved to Edgewood Arsenal, MD in 1970.  I was 14 and she was 13.  We lived next door to Sergeant Major (SGM) James Jennings family for almost 2 years.  Tammy and I were never boyfriend and girlfriend; we were just friends.  My family moved to Europe in 1972.  In 1973 we moved back to Maryland.  Tammy and I stayed in touch off and on until I joined the US Air Force in 1977.  Like all young people we went out to take on the world.  The years passed and for numerous reasons we lost touch with one another.  33 years later, I was researching US Army units on the internet and accidentally ran across the name SGM James Jennings living in Austin, TX.  I contacted him and we talked for quite a while.  He gave me the number for James and Tammy.  So, in 2009, after 33 years, I telephoned my friend.  It was at that time I learned of the battle she was having with cancer.  Occasionally we would chat on the telephone and every now and then on FACEBOOK.  In 2011 I sensed she wanted to spend her remaining time with her family and I gradually stepped out of her life once more; and rightly so.  

Tammy, I take comfort in knowing you are in a far better place and are no longer in pain.  I just wanted to tell you: â€œThank You for being my friendâ€.  I'll miss you.  Rest in Peace!

I met Tammy at my first chemo treatment in 2010.  Tammy took my hand and told me everything would be ok.  The afternoon passed so quickly as she told me about her family and the love they shared.  She gave me her number before leaving and told me to call anytime.  I had made a friend who would be a part of my life forever.  I never saw Tammy without a smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye.  I am so lucky to have met Tammy and James.  My prayers go out to your family.  There is a special place in heaven for those who give so unselfishly.  I have pictures of me and Tammy on my first day at chemo and I always tell people how lucky I am to have made friends with such an amazing woman.  Thank you Tammy for making my life richer.  Love you.  Susan Bryant

Tammy was the sweet lady that John and I had the pleasure of working with at CCAD.  She was always full of enthusiasm and had that beautiful, happy twinkle in her eye.  We both said it at the same time--when she entered the room, it immediately lit up.  Her vibrant, positive approach to life is something we both will always remember about Tammy.

We grieve with the family in your loss, but rejoice that Tammy is whole again.  We love you all.

Tammy was one of CCADs best and brightest...we will all miss you and remember your professionalism and contributions to CCAD... May the angles guide you into heaven..

Tammy had the best smile that radiated from her sweet spirit and gentle heart.  She loved her family beyond measure.

Tammy was and is my role model.  The grace that she conducted herself with is something to be admired.  The world is missing out because you are no longer here

Tammy was a really fantastic lady. I got to know her from CCAD. She will always hold a place in our hearts. We will miss you.

Tammy was a wonderful woman, and will be dearly missed.  Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

I'm sad to hear about Tammy in my retirement years. She helped me advance in my supply career at Defense Distribution Corpus Christi. She trained and trusted me with many job tasks which lead me to become a proficient employee and a leader to others. She was tough, but yet well liked, respected and I thank her for this. My condolences to the family.  I will truly miss her. God Bless.

Tammy was a Christian woman that was extremely loved and admired.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
