Obituary

It is with great sadness that we have to announce the passing of our mom, sister, daughter and grandma, on March 22nd, 2025, by a single vehicle collision.

She will be forever loved and remembered by her boyfriend Marty Yatsko; her children Dylan (Allie) Jade (Connor) and Dalton; her grandchildren Zayden, Mckinley, Haisley and Axel; her parents Randy and Elizabeth Saunders; her sisters Justina and Korah Saunders; her nieces and nephews Eric, Melany, Travis, Mikayla, Randi, Thomas, Zakary, Daniel and Julia; As well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Mom was born July 13,1977 at St. Boniface hospital in Winnipeg MB; she was raised in St. Andrews / Tyndall area. Mom was such an outgoing person no matter where she was and who she was with. She was a constant hard worker and always provided for her kids and tried her best to give them the best. She was constantly loved wherever she went, everyone knew her, and everyone had a positive memory of her. If you were with Tannis or around her there was always a picture to prove it. Our mom took pictures of everything and anything from a rock in the road to animals in the ditch to getting a selfie with you even if you didn’t want to. She always had to have a picture. Mom moved to Alberta in 2013, she loved every minute of being so close to the mountains. Any day off she had, she was in jasper going to the same 5 places and making sure to snap a picture every single time, no matter if it looked the same, no matter if she had 1000 photos of that same spot already. She had to get a new one every time she went.

Mom had a deep love and happiness for her children and grandchildren. She would brag and talk so highly of all of us to anyone who would listen. She would show pictures of everyone to anyone who would look. She would have done anything for any of us. Our mom took care of us and any of our friends who were in her house; with food, games, or anything, any of us could have needed. Mom’s house was the house, growing up. She also had a deep passion for gardening. Mom always had the best garden in town whether it was flowers, or vegetables. It was her favourite pass time. if she wasn’t watering her garden, she was having fires in her backyard with her friends.

You will be forever loved and missed, and we all will always continue to take photos of everything and anything.

At this time there will be no funeral service.
