Kalitta Motorsports is sad to announce the passing of one of our family members, Tammy âOâ Oberhofer. Tammy succumbed to cancer June 18, 2013 after fiercely battling the disease for over a year.
Tammy, husband Jim âOâ, and daughter Ashley have been an integral part of the Kalitta Motorsports family for 30 years. Tammy, first serving as the teamâs public relations representative and most recently as the teamâs office manager, will be dearly missed but her remarkable spirit will remain with us forever.
