​Tammy Marie Venlet, age 57, of Wayland, originally from Coopersville, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, June 5, 2024, peacefully at home, surrounded by her family, after a 6 year courageous battle with glioblastoma brain cancer. She loved family and friends, fishing, camping, her cats, and garage sales. She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother, and most of all, she loved nothing more than spending time with all of her family. She will be lovingly remembered by her husband, DJ Venlet; mother, Joyce Freiberg; children: Danielle Castillo, Lindsey Schoenborn (Gus), Kyle (Jen) Venlet, Alexa (Jeremy) Snyder; grandchildren: Daniel, Zoey, Phoebe, and Ollie; 7 siblings; many nieces, nephews and close loving family and friends, along with her cats Poncho and Raven. She was preceded in death by her father and step-mother, David and Sharon Marek, step-father, Rick Freiberg. According to her wishes, cremation has taken place, and the family welcomes you to join them in a casual celebration of her life on June 15, 2024 from 2 to 4 p.m. at 3940 Division St. Wayland MI, 49348. Those who wish, may make memorial contributions to the Glioblastoma Foundation. A gofundme was established for existing medical expenses. Condolences may be sent online at www.mkdfuneralhome.com.
