We are deeply saddened to share that our dear friend, Tamara Vandelinde, passed away on October 3rd, 2026, after a fierce fight against cancer.
Tamara worked in the office at Forest Houses Resort for almost 3 years. She touched the lives of all who met her with friendship and kindness, she loved meeting guests and hearing their stories, and she became a wonderful friend to me.
Tamara always went out of her way to help others and offer support in any way she could. She was constantly coming up with creative new ideas, many of them focused on healing in nature and nourishing the body with food. I am so grateful to get to know her in the last couple of years, and that she had such a wonderful community here at FHR.
She fought with such strength, positivity, and determination, to the very end refusing to give up. Truly, she is an inspiration to keep living life to the fullest, to not let her illness stop her from dreaming, laughing, and helping others.
We are so grateful to her family for their blessing so that we may host a celebration of life for Tamara here. It will be at noon on Sunday, November 8th, 2026 here at Forest Houses Resort. We will make an event on our page with details, and anyone is welcome to attend.
Thank you to everyone who gave donations, prayers, and love to her during this time. It meant the world to her. We are sending our sincere condolences and love to her family.
We love you always, Tamara ❤️
