Tanya Monica Jackson
February 7, 1964 - December 12, 2021
On February 7, 1964, Tanya Monica Jackson was born in Washington, D.C. to the late Calvin A. Jackson, Sr. and Thelma B. Taylor. At the tender age of seven, Tanya was blessed with another father, the late Victor R. Taylor, who had the privilege of raising her until adulthood. Through the years, Tanya candidly graced us with her presence, her strong personality, nurturing spirit, and quick wit which were always proven to be momentous. Early on, Tanya endearingly took on the role as “Mother Hen” to her siblings and anyone else who had the pleasure of encountering her. Tanya took pride in taking care of others and giving all that she could of herself. On December 12, 2021, she answered a call from the Lord, concluding a battle that was well fought. She leaves to cherish her memory her two children Raquel Savoid Jones (Courtney) and Brandon Savoid; two grandchildren, Cameron and Chase Jones; mother, Thelma B. Taylor; three sisters, Sherri Jackson, Marcia Yates (Kelvin), and Christal Oliphant (Johahn); two brothers, Gregory Brooks (Carmell) and Calvin Jackson, Jr.; and a host of nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends. Tanya is preceded in death by her father, Calvin A. Jackson, Sr; stepfather, Victor R. Taylor; all maternal and paternal grandparents.
