Tammy Cowburn

March 22, 1972 - October 19, 2018

March 22nd, 1972- October 19th, 2018. Tammy Parkin Cowburn was born in Fort Hood, Tx to her father, Frank Carl Parkin, and mother Maria Franziska Parkin. She was a very happy little girl with a beaming smile that lit up the room. At a young age, she showed tremendous love for horses but the most important thing to her was always family. Tammy graduated from Cottonwood High School in 1990 where she met her husband Barry Troy Cowburn. They were friends for some time after finishing school before they fell deeply in love. Their first child, Cody Kole Cowburn, was born October 3rd, 1995. They were married to each other on May 16th, 1996. Their family grew on July 29th, 2000 with the birth of their daughter Jessica Maria Cowburn. She was a wonderful mother, and wife to her family. She made sure that she was at every event to support and cheer for her children no matter the circumstances. Tammy was a very loving and caring person to all she met. Everyone she knew was met with her beautiful smile and words from her kind heart. She was a very selfless person and put everyone before herself. Her contagious smile, sharp wit, caring heart, kindness, and laugh will be deeply missed by all that were blessed with them. She loved to spend time with her family and would go anywhere to be with them. Everyone who met her even if it was one time always said that she was one of the most genuine, down to earth, loving people that they have ever met. She was a great accountant and was key component in the starting of Performance HVAC. She was a great mother that worked from home just to raise her kids and be with them as often as she could and to be there to raise them. She was an amazing woman with countless amazing qualities. She is survived by her husband Barry Troy Cowburn, two children, Cody and Jessica Cowburn, her mother and father, Frank and Maria Parkin, and her siblings, Kenny Parkin and Celia Cantonwine. She will be greatly missed. We love you. We will be holding a Celebration of Life for Tammy October 27th from 10-1p at Wheeler Farm in the activity barn. To honor her wonderful life.
