Tanya was a devoted stay-at-home wife and mother, who was such a generous soul and loved to spoil everyone. Watching her children and grandchildren play sports was her passion, spending much of her time at the ballpark.

Most recently, she enjoyed spending time outdoors with her beloved turtles and tortoise.
