Aunt Toni (a.k.a. NaNa) will be missed dearly. Growing up she was a fixture at all the major events in my life (birthdays, holidays, graduations, bowing tournaments). She and my mom were inseparable. And I have many fond memories of those summer evenings out on the front porch. May God be with you during this difficult time. But know that right now she is having a great time catching up with everyone she hasn't seen in a while.
