Tammy Lynn Ohlhauser, 48, of La Crosse, WI passed away on February 22, 2026, at Emplify Hospital in La Crosse, surrounded by loved ones.

Tammy “RayRay” Ohlhauser was born to Maynard Ohlhauser and Rose Mary McDaniel (Biehl) on April 16, 1977. She grew up in La Crosse and surrounding areas, spending most of her time with family and friends. Throughout her childhood and into adulthood, her love for animals was one of her amazing qualities. Tammy shared her love of animals, raising a multitude of different animals with her long-time fiancé, Mike Vinson. Knowing Tammy was knowing you’d have a friend for a long time, one who would be down for any adventure. Whether that included fishing, camping, cooking out or going to the races. If it was outdoors, Tammy was there for it all.

Tammy is survived by two aunts, Nancy Dickerson and Sue McDaniel, her first cousins, Charlene (Rick) Wegner, Scott (Aldena) Geier, Ann (Lester) Cottone, Colleen (Nathan) Weitzel, Shawn (Kim) Neary, Danielle (Tom) Phillips, Josh McDaniel, Kendra (Jeremy) Strzelecki, and many second and third cousins, multiple lifelong friends, and her beloved cat, Aurora.

She is proceeded in death by both parents, Maynard and Rose, stepfather Toby Biehl, uncles Raymond, James, and Fred McDaniel, aunt Maureen McDaniel, cousin Crystal McDaniel, and her fiancé, Mike Vinson.

A Celebration of life will be held by family at a later date.
