Tammy was born April 27, 1969, in Moscow, Idaho, to David and Susan Curtis Toner. She grew up in Burley, Idaho, where she loved being the oldest of her three younger siblings, farmed with her family, and gained her love of athletics.

Tammy gave birth to her four children, Karli, Landon, Macy, and Colton. She raised her family in Kuna, Idaho. In Kuna, Tammy volunteered extensively, including Chamber of Commerce, sporting events her children participated in, and community functions.
