Tammy Lee Harper

Tammy Harper, age 62, passed away on January 12, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of deep love, cherished memories, and a heart that gave endlessly to her family.

Tammy found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She loved many kinds of crafts, working puzzles, reading, and spending quiet evenings watching her favorite show, Criminal Minds. Those moments reflected her thoughtful, creative, and curious spirit.

Above all else, Tammy's greatest love was her children. She had a special way of showing her affection, especially to her baby girl Rebekah, whom she always reminded, "I love you to the moon and back and even now in the beyond, I will always love you baby girl." To her oldest, Carol, Tammy sang a lullaby every single night-a song made just for her, filled with words of love that will forever echo in her heart:
"I love you mama, I love you baby. You love your mama, I love my baby. We go together 'cause we're forever. I love you baby, I love you mama."
These tender traditions speak volumes of Tammy's devotion and the deep bond she shared with her children.

Tammy was preceded in death by Carlos Dewayne McCuiston; her parents, Jimmy and Carolyn Plumley; and her sons, Maurice Parks, Jamie Holbert, Torky Tork, and Sammy Pennick.

She is survived by her daughters, Rebekah Nicole Parris and Carolyn Annette Grayson; sons, Johnny Davenport and Johnny Hawkins; siblings, Lana (Lem) Turner, Randy (Lori) Plumley, Connie (Doug) Hughes; and her beloved grandchildren, Rodney Killian, Marissa Ardella Finnel, Adrian Penley, Kaitlyn and Cody Dale, Dakota Parris, Jimmy Dale, Tyler Hicks, Briana and Dixie Lundy. She was also blessed with great-grandchildren, Izabella Killian, Landon and Ava Killian, Miles Killian, Angelina Finnel, Liam Finnel, Ayden Steelman, Adelina Nichols, and Bentley Dewayne Penley.

She is also survived by the father of her children, Franky Wooden, along with many other loved family members and dear friends, including Linda Cantrell, Chris Howard, Renee Roberts, Christina Crenchaio, and Jamie Sheperdasz.

Tammy will be remembered for her loving heart, her comforting presence, and the songs, words, and moments that made her family feel safe, cherished, and forever loved.
