Sending my sympathy to the Scrobe and Swavely families. I went to St. Margaret School and was a year ahead of Gary in school. I heard over the years of Tammy's brave battle with cancer and am so sorry to hear of her passing. My prayers and thoughts to you all as you say goodbye to her and may you be comforted by the special memories you have of her over her lifetime. She was blessed to have you all by her side during her journey and I know all whose lives were touched by hers feel blessed too.
