Tami Linn Brett Rivard, age 48, of Lindstrom, loving mom, sister and aunt, passed away peacefully on May 8, 2023.

Preceded in death by parents, David and Linda Brett. 

Survived by daughters; Jade (Cody) Lange, Macy (Jacob) Nosbush; their father, William Grundy; siblings, Dana (Kelly) Brett, Robin (Ben) Chambers, Amanda Brett; nieces and nephews, Shanice, Kyle, Ethan, Gabriella, Benjamin, Mason; Wade Rivard; other relatives and friends.

Tami was a loving mother who loved her daughters with her whole heart. She graduated from Chisago Lakes High School and spent her twenties and thirties immersed in the lives of her girls as a Girl Scout mom, school volunteer, volleyball cheerleader, marching band supporter, and shared her love of flowers and the outdoors with her daughters and family. Her love of the outdoors and specifically the North Shore came from her mother, Linda. In the past few years, Tami would be found gardening, spending time with her family, sitting in the sun, visiting her grand puppies, and listening to true crime podcasts. 

She will be greatly missed by her friends and family. We all take comfort in the fact that she is hanging out and catching up with her mom Linda.

A celebration of Tami’s life will be 4-7 p.m. Thursday May 18 at Roberts Family Funeral Home, Forest Lake. Memorials preferred to the family.
