Tatianna (Tayah) Marie Ehnes-Giles, age 26 of Farmington Minnesota had her life tragically taken from her on her 26th birthday, on December 24th, 2025, at her home in Farmington, Minnesota. Tayah is preceded in death by her Grandma Janice Ehnes and Grandpa Stanley "Rocky" Rud.

Tayah was a well-loved waitress for eight years at the Lakeville Buckboard. You could always find Tayah doing something with her family. She especially loved the 4th of July event she hosted every year. Tayah loved the fall and spending time outside having bonfires. We are convinced Tayah's favorite thing to do was argue with her mother about where she got her attitude from, or her siblings about how she was the favorite child. Tayah was always there if you needed her, Tayah might not have always told you what you wanted to hear, but she would always be there. Tayah was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt, niece and friend. Tayah lived for her children Myles and as Tayah called her, her Banana.

Tayah is survived by her mother Deanna Ehnes, father Lonn Giles, children Myles and Elianna (Banana), sister Leah (Justin) Walde of Farmington, brothers Gary (Mariah Milton) Ehnes-Giles of Farmington, Henry Ehnes-Giles of Farmington, Jerome Ehnes-Giles of Farmington. Grandpa Roger Ehnes of Farmington, Grandma Wendee Giles of Lakeville. Nieces Nevaeh Walde and Ava Giles. Nephews Damion Bignell, Aaden Giles and Dylan Walde. Godparents Bob and Carrie Montey. Many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Funeral services will be held on January 7th, 2026 at Whites Funeral Homes in Farmington Minnesota with visitation from 10-11 AM with service directly following at 11 AM.

Pallbearers: Justin Walde, Aaden Giles, Damion Bignell, Bob Montey, Steven Giles, Henry Ehnes-Giles and Gary Ehnes-Giles
