She also had a love for riding her motorcycle. Tommie and her husband loved to go dancing, traveling in their RV, and fishing. She even out fished her husband. Together they enjoyed going to Vegas for their anniversary and with Tommie's luck would bring home some winnings. It gave Tommie great joy to have family gatherings and anytime with loved ones.

She is survived by her daughters, Ruby Ivey and Linda Snow, four grandkids and five great grandkids.

She is preceded by her youngest daughter, Donna Smith and her husband of 40 years, Ex Pow and WWII Veteran, Allen Waller (Al).
