    Our sincerest condolences to the family.
    Toni has been a very dear friend for over sixty five years. Unfortunately COVID had prevented me from visiting over the past years.
    We have shared many wonderful times together, visits, travelling, quilting classes and shared common interests in sewing, quilting and handwork.
    I miss her dearly. Sis Schoones & family.

    Please accept our heartfelt condolences. I just saw her with her radiant smile. I remember cars lined up for those wonderful family- after- church- breakfasts, the dozens and dozens of short bread cookies baked for her Church Bazaar, and the chats about gardens and Delft Blue figurines. Bless you all, Shari and Gary Martin
