    First of all im her sister the story is not true in many areas. First Tanya's nick name at school was tank. Everyone was afraid of her because her height. Both parents abused her maybe one time after she threw a party when her father was on vacation. The party goers steal her fathers guns,baonettes and more. Tanya was always stubborn. She had a Best friend named Cheryl. Both girls were persuaded to get in bed and do serial acts with a neighbor called Kathy. Tanya was on and off diet pills and pain meds and anxiety meds thru out her life. Her daughter Maria died at 18.5 months of infection and loss of kidneys. Tanya had bad taste in men first Paul a pot head and theif, Ron a con artist car theft ring, Ray a food truck Driver and pot Seller who got aneurysm. Tanya lied to Ray about her ferternal twins she had supposedly with Ray when in fact her sister Laura took her to a gyno Dr she got fertility pills and had Leo her 4th husband's kids. Leo was a mechanic and a drunk. He treated Tanya awful from what she told me. He always left her at home while he played cards,hocket,hockey, and more. Tanya got liver problems plus Hep C from Ron her 2nd abusive husband. Tanyas death was ruled accident when she was still taking Xanax upon drinking vodka coolers daily. Tanya had a severe anorexic and bulimia disorder she died at age 57. Need more answers contact her sister Laura
