Sanya Kay Giles

Sanya Kay Giles, longtime Sedona resident and business owner, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, friend, and talented artist returned to heaven on December 6, 2022.

Sanya and her childhood love, Fred Alvin Giles, (who preceded her in death) were married for 56 years having 3 children, Shelly Ann Giles, Fred “John” Giles, and Saunya (John) Lawler, 5 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren.

Sanya loved the Sedona and Verde Valley area and its natural beauty, inspiring her art and her love of the outdoors, gardening, and enjoying her beloved pets. Sanya was an accomplished self-taught artist who enjoyed painting, sculpting, sewing, and doll making.

Fred and Sanya owned and operated several stores including Sanya’s Doll House in Sedona. Sanya’s flirty, kind, and funny sense of humor will be sorely missed by all who loved and knew her. She will live on in all of our hearts until we meet again.

The viewing will be at Westcott Funeral Home in Cottonwood on Monday, December 12^th from 4 -6 PM. Funeral Services will be held on Tuesday, December 13^th at 10AM.
