Wonderful memories and laughter to last a lifetime, that’s how I will remember you. You were always there when I needed a friend and I will miss you terribly! But to have you in my life was a gift I will be forever grateful! You never met a stranger and within minutes you knew everyone’s name, pet’s name and their life story. You were one of a kind and there will never be another “Toni”….Thank you dear friend for being a part of my life!
Toni was a true friend, always there for me through good times and not so good times. She lit up a room with her vibrance and
smile. People were just naturally drawn to her. A “drama queen and doll” through and through with a good heart . I shall miss her terribly but am thankful for the many, many years of friendship. Forever in my heart. Frasier , I am just a phone call away.
Words cannot express how I feel. Miss our 8 am phone calls! Miss you much. Frasier, I’m here for you anytime, feel free to call anytime. Love, Nance
