Friends are Forever... Nancy Cline Black on the left ~ Tammy on the right. It is impossible that anything so natural and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence... as an Evil to Mankind. Jonathan Swift

Regardless of how old your child is..... there is nothing more agonizing than when they go missing and cannot be found for either days, weeks, months, or years -- it is just horrible!!! In some cases, they are found alive and well, but for those that are never found or found brutally murdered --- it is total devastation and beyond comprehension for their parents, a huge part of them dies the moment they find out what has happened to their child/children.
My heart goes out to any parents, family, and friends that have to endure this horrific journey, with heartfelt sympathy, Deb Baker ~ Angel Tammy's Mom
Missing for 2 months and 1 day - Tammy was found on Friday, March 28, 2003, by a man who was enjoying a ride on his 4-wheeler, it was one of the first nice days of spring that year and one day before what was to be her 22nd birthday......
Saturday, March 29, 2003.
This is the cross that was placed on the side of
the dirt road where Tammy was murdered.........
The woods in the background are part of a NY State Forrest.
The sign on the cross above reads as follows:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A child that loses a parent is an orphan,
A man who loses his wife is a widower,
A woman who loses her husband is a widow,
There is no name for a parent that loses a child,
For there are NO Words to describe the Pain!!

Back of Tammy's headstone - September 2008
The back of her headstone reads as follows:
”Welcome to My Special Garden”
I leave this world forever young, murdered in my youth, a senseless crime done by a man I barely knew. So I would like some special girls to accomplish the dreams that I had planned. Whichever you select, I would like to let you know what a special gift it will be in memory of me.
A Special Girl to become a veterinarian or an assistant and to travel to warm tropical places with beautiful beaches. A Special Girl to live, laugh, dream, be a sweetheart and to marry the one you love. A Special Girl to walk down the aisle in my Mom's wedding dress, the one I had her save for me.
To my family, my sweetheart, and my friends - remember all our good times and our bad times too, they meant the world to me. I will always be with you and you with me - for we have such awesome memories!
Love, Tammy
21 years - 10 months - 1 day
We love and miss you so much!
Like the candle's flame, you gave my life true light, ~ Mom
Not enough time little sister ~ Robert, Mike, Steve
Will always remember you, see you soon in the sky, your little brother ~ Kevin
I Love You with all my heart. You will always be my sweetheart, and I will always be your baby. ~ Darin
