Tammy Burns and Her Leadership at ORE
As general manager of ORE, Tammy held a position that placed her at the heart of many activities within the organization.
Leadership in a community setting often involves far more than managing daily responsibilities. It requires building relationships, listening to people and finding ways to support the groups that rely on the facility.
Tammy’s work reflected that commitment.
The relationships she developed through ORE allowed her influence to reach people from different parts of the Olds community.
For colleagues and those who regularly interacted with her, her passing represents the loss of someone who had become a familiar and valued presence.
AFTA Family Remembers a Loyal Supporter
