The Avon Avenue School community mourns the lost of one of it's star team members, Tammy Williams.
An excerpt from her obituary:
"Tammy was raised in Newark NJ and received her education from Newark, New Jersey Public Schools. Tammy has spent many years employed, as a Teacher Aide, with the Newark Board of Education, at Avon Ave School, in Newark NJ, that she loved and she also was employed with the Boys and Girls Club, in Newark NJ. During her life, Tammy enjoyed spending time with her children, family, and the many of friends, that crossed her path. She was a member of the Newark, Eastern Star Association. Tammy’s hobbies were shoe shopping, clothes shopping, bowling, and a true Dallas Cowboy’s fan. Tammy was a loving, caring and devoted person, to her mother, children, sisters, and brothers. Tammy endured many aches, illness, and pain during her time here on this earth, but she kept moving on. If anyone ever asked, “Tammy,” how are you doing? Her response always, was, I am okay, do not worry about me. No matter what, she always wanted people to know, that she and her children, were doing just fine."

Tammy was so loving, supportive, and stylish in many ways. She was always smiling and willing to assist. She was extremely supportive to her colleagues and students. Her style was one of a kind, everything matched from head to toe🤗. She will truly be missed. She was one special gem in the bunch. We love and appreciate our time spent with such a lovely soul. She will forever be apart of the "A".
