My sister was a strong woman who loved God and her family above all else in this world. I don't think she knew how much she was, and is loved. Tonya was a great writer, she inspired me with the stories she wrote in her teens. later in life she served our country in the Army. Tonya survived many challenges in her life with grace, strength and her faith in God. I will always be thankful for her and the memories we shared. Until we meet again I will hold you in my heart. I love you sis..

She's my oldest sister, time and this world have kept us apart. You try and you remember the good times. Like when she watched over me passing the milestone of swimming across Green Mountain Lake without a life lifevest, for the five bucks mom was offering. I don't know if she even got paid except for the price of being the oldest and mom couldn't swim. The ornery times when she climbed the big Gum tree in the front yard and I'd upset the ladder so I could get into some other mischief, without her immediate intervention. When myself and my other sister would write ransom notes after hiding our younger brother. Warning of the horrible danger he would come to if it weren't paid post haste. Only to find one of these notes years later and realize that candy and soda ransoms are probably a good giveaway as to who your kidnappers may actually be. The times when she's gone away in the service and sends you notes and postcards from Germany and other places. When you join yourself and catch up with her for a few seconds of life. She's there and then she's not. I hate to say I wish we'd have done more together, but I do. I won't say I wish I love her more. I still do. Only, it'll all have to be on the inside now. With mom, Robbie (my son), Steve (my brother), Robert (my brother), and some others that have gone before me. We'll meet again sister dear. Until then, we'll done and may you finally find the rest and peace we all so desperately seek, love you Tonya 😍 ❤️ Geegalocka
