Her family do her credit. much love x
Tonia was a friend to me when I first moved to Front Royal. She was always so full of love for her grandkids My heart aches for Tonia’s family.
I knew Tonia a long time ago and every time I saw her she was always kind and friendly
She will be missed
To all the family of Tiny,
So sad to hear of Tiny’s passing. Our deepest sympathy goes to all of you. I will always remember when Brenda and kids came down to NC. We played and had a good time so many years ago. I know she will be missed by all. Prayers for you all.
