Tanya is still missed by many of friends. However, because of her strength through many years of illness, we all got stronger. Twyla has taken on the family mantel with love and a glowing sense of purpose. Tanya would be proud of her “little sister”! May Twyla and James be always blessed and Tanya, RIH.

My dear Twila -

I am so sorry. Tanya was a beautiful person inside and out. I will never forget our beautiful trip to Italy. I am so glad you both were with us and that we came to know you.

I am sure she is smiling her beautiful smile at Jesus and Our Lady right now. God love and keep you.

I remember Tanya fondly as we worked together at Montgomery Ward Sales Audit around 1968. I would run into her at continuing education seminars on occasion. She was a dear, sweet woman and always with a smile on her face. My sympathies to her family and friends.

The news of Tanya's passing has deeply affected all of her friends who were raised in South as well as Southeast Akron and attended Garfield Senior High School. We grew up in very tight-nit neighborhoods and socialized with each other just about every weekend. She was a wonderful, loving friend, always willing to help you out when needed. Tanya and her family were in many ways my second family, my neighbors and classmates. May God always bless Twyla and James and other family members. I will never forget you all and am keeping you in my prayers.

My sympathy and prayers to the family and friends of Tanya Boyer. It's been a long time, but it feels like yesterday, that I had the privilege to work with Tanya at the Auditor of State's Office. She was my supervisor for a short time until I was promoted, but I would see her in the office and at trainings where she would always have a smile on her face. She was a kind and nice 'Lady'. Rest in Peace Tanya!
