Ms. Tasonya L. Poole, 54, (AKA Tonya) was born on April 21, 1971 in New York. She passed away on July 21, 2025 at AnMed Hospital in Anderson, SC.
Tasonya had a love for fashion, traveling, and people to the point that she never met a stranger. It has been said that If she met you once, she never forgot you.

She was full of so much Love and Compliments that she shared with so many people that she came in contact with.

She then moved to Anderson County at the age of 21 and remained there for the remainder of her life making fun memories with family and friends that would always remain with those whom she loved. She joined Generostee Baptist Church in Starr, SC.
Leaving behind to cherish her memories are her mother, Jimmie Nell Smith; step-father, William Smith Jr.; sisters, Jennifer Young and Doretha Cohen; Nephews, Brendan Young and Quareiff Young, great nephews, great - great nephews and nieces, aunts and cousins and other loving family members.
