Mail readers paid tribute to her on social media:
Julie Wells: "RIP Tania, still can’t believe it. You were such a beautiful, funny person. You will be missed by so many people. Lots of love and deepest condolences to your family."
Sharron Peachey-vickers: "Lovely, lovely lass. Had the pleasure of working with her at Currys, I still can't believe she has gone."
Kelsey Griffiths: "When I heard about Tania it was heartbreaking. I first met Tania when I started work in Currys, and I can tell you she was the life and soul, genuinely lit up the room. I always admired Tania - flawless beauty, always looked stunning. She made my day when on shift with her. I continued to bump into her. She came to the salon where I work and once again just made everyone smile, didn't matter where she was, whether it be in the supermarket or getting pampered, having a good knees up or at work, she was always there with a smile. My thoughts are with her family, she will be very sadly missed. RIP Tania, make then all laugh up there."
