Tammy Ann Carreon

Salem- Tammy Ann Carreon, 60, of South Union Ave., passed away unexpectedly at 5:48am, Thursday, March 10, 2022 at the Salem Regional Medical Center.

Tammy was born October 7, 1961 in Salem and was a daughter of the late Gerald ‘Bud” and Joyce (Kotsch) Garrett.

After attending Beaver Local High School, Tammy went on to become a State Tested Nurses Aide and worked for the Salem Area Visiting Nurses Association.

A member of the Assembly of God Church, she loved to go fishing in her spare time, took great joy in making crafts, and enjoyed playing with her dogs, Chico Rodriguez and Thunder.

Always a kind, caring and giving person, Tammy’s final act of generosity was giving the gift of hope and renewed life through her selfless decision to be an organ and tissue donor.  Many lives will be touched through her final act of love.
