Tammy Lynn Jaeger

Tammy grew up in Amasa, where she enjoyed playing with her cousins, friends and pets. She enjoyed skiing from a young age and continued to enjoy it into adulthood. She attended many Sheriffs’ conventions with her parents. Tammy graduated from Forest Park High School, Class of 1985. She attended Girls State at Central Michigan University during her senior year.

She married Allen Jaeger on March 6, 1993, at the Bethany Lutheran Church in Amasa. Tammy worked as a matron at the Iron County Jail. She held many positions of managerial status where she excelled and was able to help lead others. She was a Union Representative at Aramark, where she worked for more than 10 years, and she was very proud of that title.

Tammy loved camping, attending concerts, gardening and cooking. She loved Joshua trees, Flamingos, Birds of Paradise and Red-toed tree frogs. She was a fabulous cook who was often found cooking for her family. Tammy doted on her children and grandchildren. She always stuck up for the underdog and would do her best to make sure others never felt alone.

Tammy is survived by her husband, Allen; two daughters, Lindsay Jaeger (Jeremy Alquist) of Crystal Falls and Ronnie Jaeger of Crystal Falls; four grandchildren, Dani, Rory and Revi Alquist, and Gianna Spanos; and four siblings, Candy Soderena, Jimmer (Kathleen) Gill, Joe Gill and Michael Gill.

She is further survived by many nieces, nephews and extended family.

Visitation will be from 10 to 11 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 19, at the Bethany Lutheran Church in Amasa. Funeral services will follow at 11 a.m. at the church, with Rev. D.J. Rasner officiating.

Burial will be in Amasa Cemetery in the spring.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial will be established in her memory.
