Tammy Collins Obituary

Tammy (Altenhofen) Collins

59 years old. 11/24/61 - 12/30/20

Tammy reunited with our Lord on December 30th 2020 at the St. Cloud Hospital. She will be missed by the many people she came in contact with, as her jokes and sense of humor was unforgettable. She was a personal care attendant most of her adult life but also worked as a taxi driver and a food sampler person at Byerly's in St. Cloud.

She is survived by her life partner Rob Christofferson, her parents Earl and Carol Hoffman, brothers Bruce (Nikki) Altenhofen and Dale Hoffman. Sisters Julie Blank, Traci LaForge and Heidi (Mark) Wagner. She also had many nieces and nephews. And her close friend Sue and all her many other friends. She will be missed!!

A memorial service for Tammy will be held at a later date.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Tammy and I were pretty close when we growing up. She was the GREATEST sister that I could have had. I will miss her with every being of my heart. I cant wait until we see each other again.
