Obituary of Tanya Rae Marshall
IN THE CARE OF

McLaren’s Resthaven Chapel & Mortuary & Resthaven Cemetery

Tanya Rae Marshall, age 72, passed away on Thursday, February 27, 2025, in Des Moines, Iowa. She was born on November 15, 1952, to parents George Woods and Margaret Barajas in Des Moines, Iowa.

Tanya was a lifelong Southside resident. She spent her days as a homemaker and was a very loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Tanya always spoke her mind. Her fiery red hair was a glimpse into her unique personality. She loved to roller skate and making memories with family pets like Rocky & Pongo. But her favorite thing to do was to enjoy a Diet Coke and a Capri Slim with the sun shining on her beautiful face. She always pushed the ones she loved to do great things. Her love has been forever burned into our hearts.

Tanya is survived by her loving daughter, Sherry Magie; brother, Mike Rivera; grandchildren, Chelsey Gaul, Sidney Evans, and Makenzie Price; great-grandchildren, Jaxon Jordan, Olive Gaul and Kennedy Price; nephew, William Green; niece, Shannon Green; and 4 great-nieces and nephews.

Tanya is preceded in death the love of her life Miles Marshall; her parents, George Milton Woods and Margaret Lou Barajas; sister, Vera Green; and brother, George Woods.

Memorial contributions may be directed toward the family of Tanya Marshall.
