Tammie Franken's Memorial Fund

Fourteen years ago Tammie Franken went to the doctor.  What she found out would change her life forever.  Not only did she find out she was pregnant, she also learned that she had lesions on her liver and pancreas.  The full extent of the disease could not be determined until after she gave birth.  On January 15th, 2006 her second daughter, Joelynn (Joey) was born.  Tammie always wanted a second child and wished nothing more than to watch her grow up and get married. 

Tammie lost her battle to neuroendocrine cancer on November 1st, 2019.  Her last words to her daughters were "I love you" and that "everything will be fine".  Her daughters stayed with her until the end.  She fought so hard and even as she was dying, she tried to make her children comfortable.

Over the years, Tammie has touched the lives of many people.  Being a gymnastic coach, she took pride in all of her students and loved them fiercely.  She was always willing to help a child in need and often would put her happiness behind those of others.

Tammie moved to California in 2016 with Joey to be closer to her eldest daughter, Jordyn.  In 2018, both she and Joey moved in with Jordyn and her husband Robby.  Tammie knew that if something was to happen to her she wanted her daughters to be together.   Jordyn and Robby plan to support Joey until she graduates high school.  This page is for support for Tammie's final expenses and her daughter Joelynn.  Any contribution would be graciously accepted.
