Tanya Michelle Galloway, age 52, of Edgefield, South Carolina, passed away on January 5, 2025, at Aiken Regional Medical Center, surrounded by her loving children and family. Tanya was born on October 29, 1972, in West Palm Beach, Florida.

A proud mother of three, Tanya dedicated her life to her children, Makayla, Makenzie, and Kollin Galloway, and was the cherished grandmother of eight grandchildren. Tanya's love for her family was immeasurable, and she was always there for them with unwavering devotion. Her presence in their lives will be profoundly missed.

Tanya found joy in the simple things, including family time, delicious food, and watching movies with those she loved. She enjoyed spending time at the beach and cherished her annual October beach trips, which became a beloved family tradition. She was an animal lover, and her furry companions were a source of comfort and joy in her life. Tanya had a special fondness for sweet tea and could often be found with a cup in hand, sharing laughter with those around her.

Known for her generosity, Tanya was the embodiment of selflessness. She loved fiercely and played even harder, making everyone around her feel valued and cared for. She would do anything for her immediate family, and her presence left a lasting impact on all who knew her.

Tanya is preceded in death by her mother, Nancy Beth, and father, Michael Galloway. She is survived by her children, Makayla Galloway (Justin Glass), Makenzie Galloway, and Kollin Galloway; 8 grandchildren; her loving sisters, Deborah Quill and Anna Roberson; as well as her stepfather, Phillip Way.

A memorial service in celebration of Tanya's life will be announced at a later time.

Tanya's memory will live on in the hearts of her children, grandchildren, family, and friends. She will be deeply missed but forever remembered for her love, joy, and the light she brought to those she held dear.
