November 2, 2024 – Calgary, Alberta

On Saturday, November 2, 2024, our beloved wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend, Tamara Isaacs-Roddick, passed away in Calgary, AB, at the age of 54.

Tammy was born in Calgary on September 6, 1970, and graduated from Bishop Grandin High School. She went on to complete her master’s degree in nursing at the University of Calgary and worked at the Foothills and Children’s Hospitals. Tammy was a dedicated and compassionate nurse, always putting the needs of her patients first.

In her free time, Tammy loved boating, camping, and spending time with her family and friends. She cherished her children, Hayden and Sarah, and created many wonderful memories with them on trips to Fernie, Dutch Creek, and Mara Lake, as well as on holidays to sunny destinations.

Tammy is survived by her loving husband, Brian Roddick, their son, Hayden, and daughter, Sarah. She is also survived by her parents, Robert and Jeanette Isaacs; three brothers, Brett, Todd, and Scott Isaacs; her sister, Jodie Clark; her brother-in-law, Matt Clark; and her sister-in-law, Francesca Isaacs.

She will be dearly missed by all who knew her. Her kind heart, warm smile, and unwavering love for her family and friends will be remembered for years to come. Rest peacefully, Tammy.

Tammy will be most remembered for her dedication to her family, friends, and community. Her selflessness and love for others will be her lasting legacy.

Thank you to all those who have offered their love and support during this difficult time.
