The Walking Dead: All named character deaths from season 9
By Adam Carlson
Tammy Rose
- Played by: Brett Butler
- Introduced: Episode 901 “A New Beginning”
- Died: Episode 915 “The Calm Before”
- Killed by: Alpha and the Whisperers
Tammy’s introduction was a heartbreaking one. In her first scene on the show, she learned that her son Kenneth was bitten by walkers while attempting to save the horses during a scavenger mission to get a wagon, seeds, and farm equipment.
She took that anger and harnessed it into helping her husband, Earl. With the couple struggling to deal with their loss, Tammy’s husband turned to alcohol and forced Tammy to be the voice of reason while she struggled as well.
The couple took a big step forward when they welcomed an abandoned baby from the Whisperers into their home. Not only did it give Tammy Rose a new sense of purpose but also put more hope in the hearts of the survivors.
That hope was all taken away from Tammy when she was among the ten victims who were claimed by Alpha and the Whisperers to have her head put on display in order to form the northern border wall.
