Tammye Randle, born Tammye Evette Morris on February
1, 1965, is the youngest of four children to Rev. Narvell and
Juanita Morris. Her siblings are Kenneth, Joseph, and
Sandra Morris. As a child, Tammye attended several
elementary schools due racial violence and her father's
early struggles with gambling and alcohol before he
became a pastor. She attended Gilcrease and Monroe Jr.
High Schools and graduated from McClain High School in

1983. During high school, she pursued cosmetology at Vo-
Tech and completed her training at Robert's Beauty

Training Center.

Tammye served as a platform artist with Tony and Guy during beauty school and later joined Mr. C's
Beauty Products in a similar role. She eventually opened her own upscale salon, Panache Stylist &
Salon, mentoring many future salon owners and business-minded individuals, such as Tyson
Thompson, Olivia Tillis, Shindele Avington, Junina Love, and Sandra Sumlin as well as serving as a

celebrity stylist to stars such as Tamela Mann, Tonya Harding, Helen Baylor .

As a business owner, she attended DCU Dudley Beauty Products Beauty College, serving as class
president. She relocated to North Carolina, working for Dudley Beauty Products as a salon day spa
manager and living in Knightdale, Raleigh, and Cary. She returned to Tulsa to care for her ill parent.

Tammye's life took a difficult turn due to domestic abuse, mental health issues, and drug addiction,
leading to 20 years in the wilderness which consisted of drug abuse, suicide attempts, and
institutionalization. On April 22, 2022, her eyes closed, due to fentanyl overdose, but God saw fit to
bring her back. On June 10, 2022, she moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, and surrendered her life to God,

beginning a journey of recovery and spiritual growth.

In Las Vegas, Tammye discovered a passion for painting, inspired by the mountains. She dedicated
herself to daily prayer, affirmation, and art, which became a platform for sharing her experiences
and God's goodness. On February 24, 2023, she returned to Tulsa, executing God's plan for her life by
engaging in art, public speaking, and raising awareness about fentanyl, mental health, and drug

abuse.

Tammye believes in using her life experiences and holistic wellness practices, including expressive
arts like painting, music, dance, and poetry, to help others find peace and focus on their higher
selves. She offers non-clinical art therapy at her studio, Tammye Randle Artworks LLC, and provides
free art services to children every Saturday at the Historical Greenwood Market Center under

Meghan Scott's direction.

Tammye is the proud mother of five children: Shawntae Cannady, Cassandra Morris Ward, Madison

Randle, Isaiah Randle, and Ralph Knight Jr. She is also a grandmother of six and a great-
grandmother of two. She resides in Tulsa with her significant other, Megial Tate.
