Tamara “Tammy” Arlyne Morgan Sullivan, 72, a third generation Galt, Calif., resident, passed away quietly, surrounded by family and friends, on Thursday, Sept. 25, 2014, at Mercy General Hospital in Sacramento, Calif., of complications from heart failure.
Tammy, the granddaughter of Lucille Cox of Galt and daughter of Emery and Francis “Babe” Wantz Wing of Galt, was born Tamara Arlyne Wantz on April 12, 1942, in Sacramento. She was happily married to Charles “Charlie” Sullivan for the past 25 years. They spent the early years of their marriage residing in Pollock Pines, Calif., where they enjoyed the beautiful mountain surroundings.
Tammy was a graduate of Sacramento High School. In the late 1970s, she was a dedicated employee of the Sacramento Municipal Utilities District (SMUD), and worked for several years at the Utility’s Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant. As a small business owner of an Ident-a-Kid franchise, she found great joy in helping others to protect their children.

Tammy was a Past Master of the Valley Oaks Grange No. 368, a popular 4-H leader in Pollock Pines during the 1980s and a member of the Galt Christian Church and Family Life Christian Church. No matter what endeavors she dedicated herself to, she was innovative, had a smile and hug for everyone and brightened a room when she entered.
