Tammy Barnes Stevens, a woman larger than life itself, left an unforgettable mark on everyone blessed enough to know her.
Tammy’s greatest joy was her family. She shared her life with Blanca Holladay Gifford, and together they built a beautiful blended family, raising four children and creating a home filled with love, laughter, memories and all the beautiful choices that come with a family that means everything to you.
Tammy’s children and grandchildren were her heart.
She is survived by Jett Stevens and his wife, Addy, and their children, Jimah, Jax, Luna, Lynnix, Arlo and Axton; Stormy Stevens and his wife, Natalie, and their children, Wilder and Rainer; Olivia Edmiston and Payton and their child, Ebra; and Andrew Gifford and his wife, Morgan, and their children, Mayzee, Baylor and Landree.
Tammy was also deeply loved by her mother, Joy, and her sisters, Donna (Kevin), Misty (Doug) and Kristy (Chad).
Her family bonds were an important part of who she was, and she treasured the relationships she shared with each of them.
She was a beloved aunt to her nieces, Mylie, Augusta and Savannah, and her nephews, Gabe and Seth.
She was also a cherished great-aunt to Arleigh, Truleigh, Chaneleigh, Colt and Reece.
The love, laughter and memories she created with them will remain a part of their lives forever.
Tammy was generous.
She was passionate.
She was funny.
She was full of life.
She was fiercely loyal.
She was the person so many could count on to make an ordinary moment unforgettable.
She was preceded in death by her father, Wayne Barnes, and her nephew, Brody Rudloff.
There will be laughter when we remember her.
There will be tears because we miss her.
And there will be stories, so many stories.
