Her legacy
How Such a Beautiful Woman, Mother, Daughter, Sister, & friend Left out Lives....  
If you read Brittany's legacy point of view of that evening on October 15th - you have some idea of the unjust and gruesome act that one monster of a human being committed and the Life he took and the lives that are left behind to hurt..

However on a positive note we know Tammy is "Our Angel" in a much better place - but selfishly we miss her every minute of everyday and her 3 beautiful babies will always have the emptiness of losing "Mommy"......

Leaving earth at age 24 I would say Tammy's legacy left behind are the (3) beautiful children she gave birth to and the short lifetime of memories of her laugh, her smile and her love for her children and her family. I would like to tell you what happened also as part of her legacy...

Tammy had broke up with her boyfriend (by law I don't think I can put his name but most of you know it & it really isn't worth typing)!!  He refused to leave Tammy's home which she owned - so she called Richland County authorities and was told that by law she had to give him 7 days notice of eviction (how ABSURD). So, I suggested she and the 3 babies move in with me until he left.  All that week he stalked her, called her constantly at work, came to my home on more than 2 occassions, and would not leave her alone.  After all the stress - she came home from work Saturday & we both had worked & she said let's go get something to eat and go to the turkey shoot just to get out and relax. I did not want to go and she begged  me literally on her hands and knees and if you knew Tammy - you could picture this. :0)    So I gave in and said ok - so we started getting ready and as usual we wore one another's clothes and shared the mirror while we did our make-up and hair and of course gave one another tips on what looked right and what didn't.  From hair bow to shoes that night she had on my clothes and I had on one of her outfits.(very ironic considering the fate that would end the night).

Then once we got our kids settled - Nana was going to baby sit for us.  Tammy and I talked a lot that night  - and about things that were not normal conversation - she said things that in the end I realized - were almost like it would be the last conversation we would ever have. (AND SADLY ENOUGH IT WAS)  We cleared up some past differences as all sisters have and then she proceeded to tell me how much she admired me and loved me and did not know what she would have done without me.  Then at one point she even made the comment that she didn't have to worry about buying the kids Christmas presents that year because she said Aunt Mary will handle that. (kidding of course but as FATE would have it - she was not there that Christmas).  We told each other we loved each other and even hugged and when we returned to the house - long story short - the police were called because Timmy said he saw "him" in the yard - well when Kershaw County decided to arrive - the deputy got out, shined his flash light up a couple trees - walked about 10 foot radius around his own patrol car and got back in the car and said he would go check Tammy's house - well 1st of all - Tammy begged him not to leave us alone because "he" had stalked her all week then told him that "he" carried a gun. The deputy said "oh I know him - he is such a trouble maker"  - then we asked him to call another deputy so we would not be alone.  He insisted we would be fine - and left. 

About 10 mins later Tammy and I were standing side by side talking and laughing and we never heard him or saw "him" - he snuck up behind us and fired 2 shots into the back of her head at the sound of the 1st shot I saw him out of the corner of my eye and then he fired again at her head - I felt the weight of her body fall against me and then I ran - he shot at me twice. The first shot at my right foot the second shot was when I reached the porch and turned to go back to Tammy ( I knew she was dead but instinct ) then he looked me in the eye and fired right at me - missed me went into the house - through 3 walls and ended up in the sheet rock in the bathroom.  I ran inside - got all the kids to a safe place amongst screaming and chaos - then turned to the door and "he" just casually walked across the yard......Ironically the first deputy back on the scene was.....
 
"Mr. You will be OK until I get back" 
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR LOCAL AUTHORITIES for a job well done !

The rest of the night is very disturbing - so I will finish the evening here - Definitely not her legacy but just in case you wanted to see how she left our lives.

My Mom's Last Words to Me...By: Brittany Munn-oldest daughter  

All I remember from that tragic night is how scary it was- I remember somehow seeing my mom, before she went to the turkey shoot she gave us night hugs and kisses.  I also remembered she told me in the morning when we were all awake that we would have pancakes and sausage for breakfast, that was the last thing she ever said to me. The next thing I remember is that I woke up around 1am or 2am and was scared !!  People were screaming and running around.  I was taken to the room that my aunt stayed in at the time. All the kids were there and we were on the bed and talking and my cousin said just out of the blue -that "somebody died".  Everybody was pretty much broken down and crying or screaming and of course were scared.  Then I remembered how my mom had told me she loved me and that we would have pancakes.  Then the next thing I knew I woke up with my dad rubbing my back and we left together and went in the living room-it was filled with friends and family. I went to my grandma's which is pretty much where we lived until we got my house- I think I have taken it better than I should sometimes -I do cry about it and I know everything happens for a reason so it is accepted and I talk to her every night.  We all miss her but I have a great life and I will see her on that very judgement day.
