Tammy attended Purchase Line High School and worked her adult life as health care aid at Rebecka Manor in Northern Cambria.
Tammy was an avid gardener and loved attending to her flowers and plants. She enjoyed spending time with her Cat “Ollie” as well as cooking, baking and listening to her favorite music.
Her infectious laugh, kind and generous soul, along with her strength and determination, will be missed by her family and friends the most.
Tammy is preceded in death by her parents James Leroy Lee and Shirley Mae Lee. Her brother Thomas Lee and Sister Laura Lynn Lee.
She is survived by a very loving family.
