Tammy was born on March 22, 1958, in Tomah, Wisconsin to Thomas Wayne Welch and Wilna Lillian (Worden) Welch. She was a devoted member of the Catholic Church, and her faith was a guiding light throughout her life. She was known for her role as a mother, the best friend and Mimi to her grandchildren, a partner, a friend, a crafter, a supporter of the ones she loved, and a captivating rockstar who will be shaking her eternal tambourine.

She is further survived by many nieces, other relatives and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas and Wilna "Free Willy"; her brothers, Dennis and Steven Welch and brother-in-law, Rodney Sheldon.
