Tonya Ann Sheets, 56, of Manchester, NH, beloved mother, daughter, and sister passed away peacefully on September 20, 2024 in her home, after many years of battling chronic illness.
Tonya was born on July 22, 1968, in Boston, Massachusetts. She moved to New Hampshire in the 1980s, but always considered herself a “Boston girl” and later graduated from Hillsboro-Deering High School.
Tonya dedicated many years to a career of service in social work and advocacy for Twin States Network, inspiring so many of us with her passion for service, volunteer work, and advocacy. She was an active member of her community and enjoyed bringing people together.
She had a passion for the arts, music, and fashion. Tonya will be remembered as a remarkable woman whose fighting spirit touched the lives of all who knew her and for her courage and resilience especially as she faced chronic illness with grace and strength.
She is survived by her mother, Rolanda (Sheets) Brown and her children, Arielle Pierre, Brandon Pierre, and Anthony Moscaritolo. Tonya is also survived by her brother, Tony Sheets, a large extended family, and many dear friends.
