Tammy was born on January 3, 1963 in Des Moines, Iowa to George and Diane (Brown) Taylor. She married her high school sweetheart, Rodney Reynolds on July 21, 1979. They would have celebrated 40 years of marriage this July. Rod and Tammy moved to Norwalk, Iowa shortly after being married, where they then raised their four children. They always took care of each other. The love they had for one another kept their marriage strong and their family close. Tammy was and will always be Rods Queen.
Tammy worked as a CNA for several years. She then went on to work at Mercy Medical Center for over 31 years as a medical secretary. She had a huge heart and always saw the kindness in everybody. She treated everyone with respect, and put others needs before her own. Tammy enjoyed traveling and loved being a grandma.

Tammy was such a loving woman, and truly cared for and loved her family and friends. She brought sunshine to so many lives! Whenever I would see her, I could just feel the Love, and she always asked how I was and those in my family. Such selfless caring for others. Its so hard to say goodbye, but theres comfort in knowing she is free of pain, getting to be with her daughter Jennifer, and they are flying with the angels! Rest In Peace sweet Tammy. Saying prayers for all whose lives you touched and blessed! We love you!

I have to second Kim Terrell. Tammy was the glue that held 7 North together. She cared for everyone and made things happen in a very busy, stressful and hectic environment. You could always depend on Tammy. I loved working with her. She always had a smile for you. My sincere condolences to her family that she cherished.
