My heart is broken. Tammy is one of my most favorite people in the world. I always looked to forward to seeing her. I will have peace in knowing I got to see her the day before she passed. She always made me smile and we always had a good laugh. Certain people come into your life and you create a bond with them...this is what happened with Tammy and Me. From the first time I met her I knew we were kindred spirits. Tammy you will be missed and I promise I'm going to keep our bet! I love you and you will always be in my heart!
