Tamara Moore

Obituary of Tamara D. Moore

Tamara D. Moore passed away unexpectedly, at the age of 53, on Tuesday, May 29, 2018, at her home in Hoffman Estates.  She was born on June 30, 1964.  Tammy grew up in Bolingbrook and was a graduate of Bolingbrook High School.

She was employed as a Supervisor, and part time Pit Boss, at the Rivers Casino, in Des Plaines, since it opened in 2011 and was previously employed as a Dealer at Grand Victoria Casino and Harrah’s Casino.

Tammy was a very likeable woman with numerous friends.  She was always there for everyone in their time of need; there wasn’t anything she wouldn’t do to help those that she cared about.  Her social calendar remained busy.  She enjoyed being active traveling or taking in a movie, but what made her the happiest was spending time with her family, especially her nieces, nephews, and cousins, whom she adored.  She never missed a birthday, holiday or special occasion to express her love to her family. 

Tammy is survived by her siblings, Jason (Heidi) Moore, Justin Moore, Jeremy (Melissa) Moore, and Heather (Evan) Nelson; aunt, Beverley (David) Urschel; nieces and nephews, Marissa, Jordyn, and Rori Moore, Michael (Tara) Lamping, Michelle (Caleb) Dixon, Megan, Travis, Tyler, Mason, Tyson,  AnnE’lisa,  Logan, Aria, Kalel, and Winter Moore; and cousins, Wesley and Marc Urschel.  Numerous great nieces and nephews, along with her beloved feline children, Phoebe and Lola, also survive. 

She is preceded in death by her mother, Sheila Henry and her grandparents, Orville and Ruth Slifer.
