I'm so sorry. So many of the quirks on this board are 100% because of her. Tanya's impact on us will last here forever.

I'm very sorry to hear this... truly a TexAgs legend if there ever was one.

She will be greatly missed. RIP Tanya

dabo man said:
Tanya was born in Houston (The Heights) on March 23, 1971. She moved to Spring at a young age and graduated from Klein Forest high school in 1989. She went to A&M that fall. Tanya worked her way through college working 35 hours per week at the Appletree bakery. She graduated in May 1994 with a BA in English and a minor in Russian (and no college debt).

Tanya and I would get married in May 1995. She registered on TexAgs in 1999, became a teacher in 2000, a mother in 2008, and a Missourian in 2013. We were divorced in 2019 but remained in close contact as we shared our son, Benny. Benny will turn 17 in 15 days, and I hate that his Mom won't be there to see it.

I know that Tanya meant a lot to a number of you, but I don't have much to say outside of dumping some facts. She died this morning at 8:40 AM.

We will be having a service in either La Grange (where her sister lives) or B/CS. I will pass along information when I have some.

Damn it. That is way too young to lose a mother.

I pop in and out of Texags often but also from time to time. I knew she had been in the hospital but I never stumbled across why. Was it cancer?

It's so amazing to hear all of the positive things about Tanya, but most amazing how everyone knew how much she loved her son.

My kids can be irritating as hell, but man, I hope I can be like Tanya and be known for how much I love them.

I know they are working on a 529 from Benny that has been posted above. If anyone wants to chip in a little to help out Will and Benny with travel (food/lodging/gas) to Texas for the funeral, I do have his Paypal if you want to reach out to me. You can PM me here or my email is in my profile.

He didn't say he did. Up to you, but if you wanted to send to me, I can send to him, but understand if you don't want to do that. I could show you screenshots.

DM me his PayPal I guess. I haven't used PayPal to send to an individual before, just to businesses. I normally use Venmo for individuals but that's fine.

Or I can send to you. I trust you.

I've received paypal donations from several of you, and I want to say "Thank you!" I've already been spending. Benny and I went to Dillard's last night to buy black dress shoes for both of us. He had outgrown his, and mine were lost in my move last month. Also bought some black pants for Benny.

My paypal:
will.newnum@gmail.com

I haven't used Venmo in a few years, but my user name is @wnewnum, and the email address with my venmo account is wnewnum@mail.com.

I only knew her from f16, but she always struck me as one of the posters I wouldn't have minded introducing my wife to in real life. Maybe that says more about me than it does about her. She never wavered from being authentically herself. A real treasure in that way and I'll miss her posts

You should have the option to "pay without confirming" if you want to. That feature is just to make sure that you're paying the correct account. I copied and pasted his username to avoid typos.
