I just learned today of Tanya’s transition. I am honored to have met her and shared many occasions with her. Special to us both was our native city of Detroit. Your family is in my prayers for continual strength and healing. Blessings to the family!

Tanya was my niece with such an infectious smile, she always encouraged me to follow a dream I had of being an interior designer. I can still her laughter and see her bubbly personality. Still trying to grasp that she is gone but knowing she is dancing with the angels with the same smile she left us with and will miss her a lot. Rest in the Lord niece .

What a beautiful young lady in spirit and in deeds. She was definitely a game changer, a Christian, and a wonderful "sister' in spirit and in truth. When called upon, she answered the call. You will be greatly missed.

What a tremendous loss to those who knew her and was impacted by her beautiful smile, personality and drive to bring out the best in people. I had the honor of calling her my friend. I miss you dearly Tanya and will love and cherish all the memories that we made. May you find rest in the arms of God.
