Tammy Taylor was the daughter of Ralph and Mona Taylor. She was a cute six year old until her mother cut off her pony tails out of anger. That was not the first time nor the last time that Tammy was abused by her bipolar mother. She was also sexually abused by her father the age of eight until she ran away from home to live with teetotaler Auntie in May, 2016.

Tammy became an alcoholic. She had gotten her third DUI and faced aggravated battery charges upon a police officer.

Tammy finally joined Alcoholic Anonymous where her sponsor, Gertie, gave her assignments and visited with her weekly. Tammy had a ravenous sexual appetite and three boy friends in three months. She also has trouble at work with Serena, the boss’ niece. Tammy was fired and sought other employment.

Gertie finally got Tammy on the road to sobriety. She moved up the ranks to manager and then to branch supervisor. Later, her father became ill and came to live with her. They reconnect and amends are made by Tammy and by her father before his death.
