Tanya has 20+ years’ experience in the funeral industry. She came to this job when she married her husband, Larry, but since then it has become much more than just a job. It has allowed her the opportunity to meet and help people when they really need a helping hand.

Tanya works in the financial office here at Fayette Memorial, but also assists with funerals, coordinates arrangements with families, and does marketing and monument sales for the funeral home.

She grew up in a small rural area in west Texas, before moving to Dallas, where she lived and worked in the food and beverage industry for 25+ years. Moving to La Grange was sort of like moving back to the country. There’s nothing like small town life to bring you back to your roots. She spends her free time with her dogs Romy and Nova.
