Our loving and caring mother, Tanya Gabriel, passed away February 25, 2024. She loved music and often sang and smiled any time she got the chance to do so. She would dance as much and as long as she could. Tanya was a kindred spirit, a person who not many people often have the chance to know. Her favorite color was purple. Few people in the world are like Tanya in the world we live in. Heaven has truly gained a one of a kind angel. Tanya will forever and always be loved and never forgotten. Tanya is survived by her children, Kristy and Brandon Lesmeister and Lynn Gabriel, mother Kathleen Hoover, father John Gabriel, grandmother Genevieve, sister, Tiffany O’Grady, uncle Ricky Hoover, aunt Emma Hoover, cousins, Ricco Hoover and Brittny Gould, niece, Makenzie Paschal, nephew Nathan Paschal, great niece Sofia Lopez. She leaves behind her best friend, Liza Romey, close friends, Norman Powell, Abdul Mujahid-ock, Breda Allen, Jamil, Malik, Kareem, George Newkirk and Bridget Newkirk. Services will be private.
