Toni was born July 18, 1949 in Tulsa, OK to Clarence and Afton Darnell. She was introduced to her husband by his sister in Sept. 1968. They married six months later on April 18, 1969. They shared 44 wonderful years together.
Toni was a loving sister, wife and mother who raised five beautiful children. She was blessed with many talents, but her love and compassion for others is what really made her shine. She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and she served in many callings.

The world lost an amazing woman but heaven gained a beautiful angel. She was loved by so many and will be dearly missed.
