Tanya attended school at the Lavern Elementary, Glenwood Junior High and Kainai High School. Tanya’s greatest accomplishment was becoming a Mother; she loved her children with all her heart.
She loved and cared for family members whenever they needed her. She went out of her way to help others and anyone in need.
Tanya was the most humble person who will ever meet. She had a very compassionate heart and never a mean word came from her.
Tanya will be greatly missed by all who knew her and loved her. Her memory will be carried on in our hearts. “It isn’t what we leave behind; it’s what we leave in people’s hearts that counts.” “There are special people in our lives that never leave us even after they are gone.”
