"Kiria Andonia" is a giant in the memories of my life. Her vibrancy and dedication to family and church is ledgendary. From my earliest days in the Kelvyn Park area to her "grand migration" to Oak Park, Toni was always there. In the later days of my own parents lives, she and Peter were regularly on the phone and there in person visiting them and buoying up thier spirits. I will always cherish fond precious memories of my Thia Toni. May her memory be eternal.
