Tammy went to school in Concordia, Kansas while living with her mother and stepfather George Gassert. After finishing her freshman year, she came to live with her father, David and stepmother Cheryl Jensen. She graduated from Beloit High School.
After graduation she worked at the Buffalo Roam and Red Rooster as a dish washer. She lived on her own at Pine Haven with help. She moved to Junction City to be with her mom and where she had Dakota for a short while. She then moved back to Mankato.
She lived at the Downs Care and Rehabilitation for a year to help control her blood sugar. When released, she moved to Beloit with help from OCCK to a group home. After a few months she was ready to move to her own apartment, again with OCCK assisting her in daily living. OCCK was instrumental in keeping her independence.
She enjoyed bowling, shopping and drinking Diet Dr. Pepper. She looked forward to having her son spending the weekend with her, just to hang out. She always had a positive attitude and made many friends.
Those that celebrate her life are her father, David Jensen (Cheryl); Son, Dakota; sisters Carolee Ali and Angela Richard (Bret); brother Paul Jensen (girlfriend, Shira Brown); and 2 nieces and many other relatives.
