Tanya was nothing short of a sweetheart. We have known her since my daughter was in grade school with Austin. The past couple years we took turns driving the kids to and from school. She was the nicest person and we are all heartbroken that she is gone. The world is definitely a better place because she was in it.

Tanya went above and beyond for everyone she knew. She selflessly would do everything she could to make sure someone else's day was flowing right. From random uplifting texts with emojis to giving the shirt off her back. She was a fantastic Mom to my girls and gave them an amazing childhood and I know the love and lessons she taught them will go with them well into adulthood. We are all Honored to have known her. She will be forever missed.
