Tamara Pinkerton

It is with deep sorrow and great love that we announce the passing of Tamara Lynne (Stussy) Pinkerton, a devoted wife, loving mother, and faithful servant of Christ, who went home to be with the Lord on April 5th, 2025, at the age of 56.

Born on January 24, 1969, to Jerry and Nancy Stussy, Tamara lived a life marked by laughter, generosity, strength, and unwavering faith. She was the beloved wife of Mark Pinkerton for 28 years, and together they built a home rooted in love, prayer, and service to God.

Tamara was a caring and wise mother to Celeste and Jon Marc, whom she raised with compassion, discipline, and the Word of God. She poured herself into her family, her church, and her work as a dental hygienist, always reflecting Christ in all she did.

A woman of loving kindness and a joyful spirit, Tamara was known for her contagious laughter, generous heart, and her faithful prayers. She served faithfully at Fellowship Bible Church of Cabot, where she was active in a small group, children’s ministry, and youth ministry. Her legacy of faith, kindness, and perseverance will continue to live on in all who knew her. Though we mourn her passing, we rejoice in knowing that she is now in the presence of her Savior, whom she loved and served faithfully.

She is survived by her husband, Mark Pinkerton; her children, Celeste and Jon Marc; her parents, Jerry and Nancy Stussy; her brother; Shawn Stussy; and many dear family members and friends.

“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her” Proverbs 31:28
