 Tonya E. Yanicki, 39, of Lyndonville, NY, passed away after a long, courageous battle with cancer on Monday, June 3, 2024, at Buffalo General Hospital.

She was born on November 15, 1984, in Medina, New York, the daughter of Nancy (Wise) Skellon and the late David Yanicki.

Tonya graduated from Lyndonville High School in 2002. She was a self-driven entrepreneur who loved the outdoors, especially playing with her three dogs. She enjoyed traveling and never met a stranger.

There are no calling hours. A private service will be held at the convenience of the family. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you plant a tree in her name. Arrangements were entrusted to the Bogan & Tuttle Funeral Home, 226 Pearl St. Medina, NY 14103. Please light a candle or share a memory of Tonya at www.bogantuttlefunerals.com
