Tonia Boyd Obituary

Tonia Lynn Boyd

Age 50 of St. Paul, formerly of Shiprock, New Mexico, passed away surrounded by her children on February 19, 2026.

Tonia loved beading, crafting and all things beauty. She was very creative, hardworking, and always made sure she was well-kempt with her appearance regardless if she was working or running a simple errand. Tonia was a fashionista and also made sure her children and grandchildren were decked out and in style as well.

Her 4 children were the center of her world and she loved them dearly, and that love only grew when she had grandchildren. Tonia cherished her grandbabies, and loved being their "Glam-Ma." She enjoyed her candies, cherry colas, and Chicago mix popcorn.

Tonia is preceded by her mother, Emma; cousins, Bianca, Veronica, and Travis; grandparents, Katherine and Lester Sr; uncles, Lester Jr, Wilbur, and David; aunts, Cecilia, Evangeline, and Bessie; and the father of her youngest son, Rashad Sr.

She is survived by her beloved children, Dominique (Ricardo), Aaliyah, Caleb (Alyssa), and Rashad Jr.; grandchildren, Gabriella, Lorenzo, and Aliza; siblings, Candida, Shauna, and Younzer; her dearest aunt, Rachel(Fred); her beloved cat Ressey; the fathers of her children; Robert and Humberto, and many other cousins, nieces, nephews, and additional family and friends.

Funeral services for Ms. Tonia Boyd will be held on Tuesday, at 11:00 AM at Bradshaw (1078 Rice St.) with visitation an hour prior.
