My heart goes out to you all. Toni was a beautiful person and I will always remember her. She was like a big Sister as I was growing up and a joy to have around. Just remember she'll always be watching out for the rest of us. She's now our Guardian Angel.

Our family is so sorry for your loss at this time. Ms. Toni was very special to our family while our daughter attended the Neenah YMCA daycare. Her smiling face and caring ways made it easy for us to leave her knowing she was in such good care. She truly had a gift with children. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. The Schroeder Family
