Passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by family on Monday, October 5, 2020 at the age of 59. Loving mother of Natalie Slaght and Patrick Irwin.

Dear sister and sister-in-law of Cindy Watson, Michelle Wright, Tim and Diane Wright, Celeste Wright, Darcy Wright, and Rebecca and Dan Wright. Tammy will be remembered by many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Tammy was an extremely never-ending hard worker. She lived on the hearts of the people she cared for, whether that be her family or her residents.
“To know even one life has breathed easier because she has lived, this is to have succeeded and that she did.”
Keeping with Tammy’s wishes, cremation has taken place. Arrangements entrusted to Haskett Funeral Home, Seaforth (519-527-1390).

I am so sorry to hear of Tammys passing. It was hard thinking of her in the past weeks knowing that she was in pain. My parents, Clarence and Lois Wurm loved her and the special care that they received from her at the Exeter Villa. From the artwork on pill cups to the fresh cut flowers that she would bring to them from her garden. Mom loved her special hugs and dad enjoyed her good natured teasing and the friendly competition that they had in solving the word puzzles that Bobbi posted. When mom and dad would come to my place for supper, I would pack leftover cake for them to take back home, knowing that Tammy would get a piece and she would take it home to share with her mother. Tammy was a kind and generous soul that will be greatly missed by those that knew her.
