Tammy was born on March 4, 1974 in Charles City, IA. Tammy, at the age of 18 went on to pursue her nursing degree at NIACC. With all her hard and tireless work, she was able to obtain her associates in nursing. Tammy went on to start her first nursing job as a psych nurse at Mercy Medical Center in Mason City, IA. It was in the year 2000, that Tammy would meet the love of her life, Richard “Rick” Dean Arhart. As their loving relationship progress, the couple decided it was time to tie the knot and have their first child. Tammy and Rick Arhart were joined in union on October 7, 2001. A few months later, the pair welcomed their first beautiful daughter, Abigail McKenzie Arhart, on February 7, 2001. Tammy was such a nurturing and sweet soul, that she decided she wanted to welcome another beautiful baby girl, Alexandria Monet Arhart, on February 6, 2002 and completed her ideal loving family. Tammy was such an accomplished and prestigious registered psych nurse, that she was offered a position at the #1 hospital nationwide, the Mayo Clinic. Tammy worked at the Mayo Clinic as an RN in the psych department, Generose, up until her last breath; totaling at 14 years.

Tammy had simple but strong passions in her life. Her strongest being her family, but most importantly, her two daughters. Tammy was an amazing, selfless, sacrificial and loving mother that her daughters will remember for eternity. Another important piece of her life was her nursing career. Tammy was an extremely tireless and hardworking nurse that always put her patients first.

I had the pleasure of working with Tammy for the entirety of my nursing career. She was a kind and gentle soul who always had a smile and a kind word for those around her. She knew more about her patients than anyone on the floor. Her presence will be deeply missed. May she rest in peace. 

Oh sweet Tammy it was an honor to work along side you and see you day in and day out give your all to your patients. I can't even begin to think of how many lives you saved by being there for those in their darkest times. May you rest in such sweet peace.

I worked with Tammy for the past few years. I was always inspired by the genuine nature of care she gave. No matter the background a patient had, or the acuity of their illness, Tammy would provide the best care she was capable of. She was family to all of Generose. She will be missed dearly.
