Tamie moved to Daytona, FL in 1999. There she studied and graduated in 2004 from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University with a BASCE Bachelors Computer Engineering Degree. It wasn't long before she moved to Melbourne, FL where she worked in her career at Sonneticom. Just before graduation in 2004, Tamela's father passed away in Greensburg. In 2010 Tamie moved back to Greensburg to be with her mother Rebecca Velasco Trauth. They became like sisters enjoying much time together.

She was a member of Our Lady of Grace, Greensburg, Westmoreland Ski Club, The Roudy Bike Group, Sigma Kappa, Alpha Phi Omega where she was known as "Casper" and a little sister of Theta Chi.

Tamie loved the outdoors. She enjoyed the ocean, beach, playing in the waves or just playing in general. She believed in working hard and playing harder. She loved sushi and being creative with food and creating new dishes for others to enjoy. Above all, Tamie enjoyed helping other people look up, love and laugh and be happy.

Everyone who met Tamie, even for a moment, can remember her smile. She was the sweetest, kindest, and most giving person. The world has lost a very bright soul. She will be loved and remembered always.

A memorial mass will be celebrated in Our Lady of Grace Church, Greensburg on Wednesday at 1PM. Arrangements entrusted to Kepple-Graft Funeral Home, Greensburg, PA.
