For the last 16 years Tommie has worked as the executive legal assistant to Taylor Townsend at his law firm. Tommie was an avid animal lover. Her love for horses and dogs was like no other. She enjoyed barrel racing and won several titles, saddles, and buckles to prove it. In her free time, she loved to travel. Her kind heart and loving nature led her to put others before herself. She was known to have the best smile and the best biscuits. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
