Tamara L. Marcellus, 51, of Rock Island, Illinois, passed away Thursday, December 15, 2016, at UnityPoint Health - Trinity Rock Island, after a courageous 6-year battle with cancer.

A service celebrating Tammy's life will be 11:00 a.m. Monday at Grace Bible Fellowship, Moline, with Rev. Donnie Plemons officiating. Cremation will take place at Trimble Crematory, Moline, under the direction of the Cremation Society of the Quad Cities. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the family.

She was born December 29, 1964, in Moline, the daughter of Bobbie and Vicki (Peterson) Lamberson. She married William "Chester" Doyle, who passed away in 2001. She worked as an LPN for many years, most recently for Generations of Rock Island, retiring in 2015.

Tammy was an active member of Grace Bible Fellowship, where she helped whenever it was needed. Above all else, family was the most important thing to her, especially her granddaughters.

She was preceded in death by her husband and father.
