Tanya Burnside: A Beautiful Life, Gone too Soon.

There are no words to truly capture the depth of grief we feel over the devastating loss of such a wonderful human being.

Tanya Burnside was a devoted mother, loving daughter and sister, brilliant coworker, and cherished friend. Her bubbly spirit, quick wit, and playful personality brought light and laughter to everyone she met. If you were lucky enough to spend time with her, you felt the warmth of her beautiful energy—a gift that could lift any mood.

Her kindness extended beyond people to all living creatures. Tanya’s three "puppers” were part of her heart, just as she so often cared for the pets of her friends.

Tanya’s beloved daughter, Melina, now faces the many challenges of navigating life without her mother’s presence. In honor of Tanya, we are asking for your support to help ease some of the burdens Melina and her family will encounter in the days ahead. Your generosity can provide a measure of peace during this difficult time.

Tanya, our hearts are shattered. You were deeply loved, and your light will be missed more than words can say.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your kindness and compassion.
