Tammy Lynn Slatky, born on June 25, 1967, departed this world on July 16, 2026. Her life, though not nearly long enough, wove a story of kindness and gentle strength that will endure in the hearts of all who loved her.

Tammy grew up with warmth surrounding her, raised by her beloved parents, Lorene Kroenert and James Steffke, both of whom preceded her in death. Their love and guidance shaped the vibrant spirit that Tammy would share with those around her. Throughout her life, she remained devoted to her family, anchored by the deep affection that was shared among loved ones.

Tammy pursued higher learning and earned her Associates Degree, a testament to her perseverance and dedication. Professionally, she flourished as a florist—a role perfectly suited to someone with her tender heart and eye for beauty. Through her skillful hands, Tammy brought color, joy, and comfort to countless people, transforming simple blooms into art that celebrated life’s milestones and comforted during times of sorrow.

Above all, Tammy was cherished by her family. The love between her and her surviving daughter, Macey Lane, was a profound force—unbreakable and enduring. That special bond, filled with laughter, support, and unwavering devotion, remains a lasting source of solace for Macey and all who knew Tammy’s deep capacity for love.

Those fortunate enough to know Tammy remember her as truly kind—a light in every room, compassionate toward friends and strangers alike. Her absence is deeply felt, for she was a gentle soul gone far too soon. The memories she created, full of generosity, laughter, and quiet strength, continue to inspire and uplift those who mourn her loss.

As we honor Tammy’s life, we hold close every moment spent with her and every lesson she imparted through her example. Her legacy will live on in the hearts of those who loved her and in every blossom that brightened someone’s day through her careful hands.

Care of Tammy has been entrusted to In Their Honor Funeral and Cremation Providers.
