Tammy L. Repsher Jenkins, 63, of Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania, passed away after a short illness on January 9, 2026, at Danville Medical Center. She was born on August 24, 1962, at Tyler Memorial Hospital in Meshoppen, Pennsylvania.

Tammy was a lifelong resident of the Tunkhannock area and a graduate of Tunkhannock Area High School, Class of 1980. She devoted many years of service as a dedicated employee of Tyler Memorial Hospital, where her commitment to caring for others was evident to all who knew her. Tammy also served her community as a former member of the Tunkhannock Ambulance Association and as the Tunkhannock Borough Tax Collector.

Above all else, Tammy was deeply devoted to her family. She especially cherished her role as a grandmother to her beloved granddaughter, Wren Eloise Snover, who lovingly called her "TT," a special nickname. Tammy cared for Wren every day, and their bond was truly inseparable. She also found great joy in gathering with her family at her mother's home in Tunkhannock, affectionately known as "the hill," where she loved spending time outdoors on the porch all summer long.

Tammy is survived by her children, Megan Elizabeth Jenkins Snover and her husband Derek Snover of Mill City, and Thomas James Jenkins and his wife Lauren Wilson Jenkins of Tunkhannock. She is also survived by her former husband James Jeffrey Jenkins. She is also survived by her granddaughter, Wren Eloise Snover, and a soon-to-be grandchild, lovingly awaited by Thomas and Lauren.

She is survived by her mother, Sylvia Lane Repsher of Tunkhannock. She was preceded in death by her beloved sister and best friend, Sandra L. Repsher Ritz and father, Kenneth Frank Repsher Sr of Harding.

Tammy is survived by her siblings, Holly A. Repsher Banta and Kenneth F. Repsher Jr. and his wife, Michelle Kelchner, as well as her brother-in-law, Russell (Sandra) Ritz.

Tammy was a loving aunt to her nieces and nephews: Ashley Ritz (Michael Darby), and Christopher Ritz; Catherine Banta; and Lillian Repsher and Lane Repsher. She was also a proud great-aunt to her great nephews, Jackson and Miles Darby, and Caleb Ritz.

Tammy will be remembered for her kindness, her dedication to her community, and the deep love she had for her family. Especially for her treasured granddaughter, who brought her endless joy.

In accordance with Tammy's wishes, services will be private and held at the convenience of the family. Interment will be held in Sunnyside Cemetery, Tunkhannock.

The family would like to sincerely thank the doctors, nurses, and staff at the Danville Medical Center for their care and compassion, as well as all family and friends for their prayers, support, and kindness during this difficult time.

Arrangements and care entrusted to Marcho, Sheldon, and Kukuchka Funeral Home & Cremation Care, 73 W. Tioga St., Tunkhannock, PA 18657.
