Tammy Jo (Wagy) Marshall, age 67, passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at 9:30 p.m. in her home in Palmyra, Missouri. She was born on August 21, 1959, in Quincy, the daughter of Richard and Vi (Wester) Wagy.

Tammy was a graduate of Quincy Senior High School, Class of 1977. Throughout her life, she was known for her strong work ethic and dedicated service to others. She worked for the BNSF Railroad and later worked at the Illinois Veterans home as a CNA, and then in dietary and housekeeping. Tammy spent 22 devoted years caring for her beloved residents at the Illinois Veterans Home, retiring in 2024.

Tammy was a bright spirit who loved everyone and naturally filled any room with warmth and joy. She never met a stranger, loved to chat, and always knew how to make people laugh. Outside of work, she enjoyed hitting the open road for traveling and road trips, cooking big meals, baking, and spending cherished time with her family and friends, whom she loved and cared for deeply.

A special thanks to Tammy’s special friends Brandi Griswold and Lynn Sharrow for providing her comfort and friendship.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Bruce Marshall; her son, John Marshall; her daughter, Nicole (Eric) Ihnen; her granddaughters, Taylor Richie, Abigail Marshall, and Keleigh Ihnen; and her grandsons, Kody, Carter, and Greyson Ihnen. She leaves behind her brothers, Dean (Debi) Wagy and Curt Wagy; her sister, Debbie Wagy; Sister-in-law Sally (Bill) Luthin; her special cousins, Lori Cox and Cindy Trenhaile; as well as many beloved aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews.
