Tamarah “Tammy” Lowe McGee, 54, passed away peacefully on September 9, 2016. Although she won many hard fought battles and never gave up her fight, Tammy ultimately lost her war with cancer.

Tammy was predeceased by her father Willie Lake Lowe Jr and mother Barbara Jean Lowe. She is survived by her husband of 23 years, Brian McGee, sister Kimberly Lowe-Breiner and husband Matthew Breiner, all of Virginia Beach.

Tammy was a 1980 graduate of Princess Anne High School. She proudly served as a PDO for the Virginia Beach Police Department for more than 32 years before retiring in April of 2015.  Tammy was the strongest person those lucky enough to have known her will ever meet and she never lost her wonderful sense of humor.

The family would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Dr. Jenkins and his team for giving us an extra year to spend with Tammy. We are also grateful to the staff at Princess Anne Health and Rehabilitation Center for keeping Tammy comfortable in her final weeks.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00 p.m. Saturday September 17 at the Framptom Funeral Home. It is located at 216 N. Main St., Federalsburg, MD 21632.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to the American Cancer Society.
