Tammy is preceded in death by her mother, Tina Perry.

Left to cherish her memory is her loving husband of 36 years, Brant Skidmore; sons, Billy and Chris Skidmore; grandchildren, Mason, Braden and Evelynn; sisters, Nicky Baker and Linda Perry; her father and step mother: Manny and Judy Perry.

What our families say...

In my opinion, there is no better facility in Virginia than Altmeyer Funeral Homes. Not only was Chris Sisler there to hold my hand every step of the way, his family members were holding the door on the day of the funeral to help and encourage me. I will never forget their grace. He led me and my family through the process as a personal friend and neighbor, and as the ultimate professional.
