Toni was a wonderful teacher of the game of bridge and an even greater person in the game of life. She always had a smile for every one whom she met and a positive outlook on every situation. She constantly maintained a pleasant, happy attitude along with a sensitive sense of humor.
It was a true pleasure to have known her and to have had her as my bridge instuctor.
South Haven has lost one of its most popular citizens who was also a strong supporter of the arts in our community.

I first knew Toni in the 1980s as a colleague in the mathematics department at Bloomsburg University. Her warmth and inclusiveness drew many people to her and I was one of these. In my view she also was fearless. While I continued to contemplate an action, she moved quickly toward righting an injustice. I have learned from her to be a bit more brave and bold.

Toni and I share an interest in the arts – for her, painting; for me, poetry. Each of us, too, has had an ongoing curiosity for learning new things. And so our last time together was a museum visit – on a lovely spring Thursday (March 1) I met Toni and Tim (and a couple other students from their Road-Scholar group at the Peabody School of Music) at the Baltimore Museum of Art. We combined chatter – as I caught up on news of JJ and the girls, etc, etc -- with awed reaction to the outdoor sculpture and the Cone collection. And, instead of a picture of Toni, my camera holds a photo (posted) of mosaic tiles that could serve to illustrate geometric symmetries in an abstract algebra class.

Dear, dear, Toni. Yours was a life lived well. I will miss you much and remember you with love.

To Tim and the Carroll Family:

Although it's been some time since we've been in contact, I often think of you and Toni and what you brought to Project SEED.

I wanted to express to you my deepest condolences on the occasion of Toni's passing. I note in her biography that "her main passion was in helping others", and about that I have no doubt. Clearly she helped many students --- as did Tim ---- through Project SEED, but many many more as you both went on to teaching at the university level.

I will continue to remember Toni and you in the coming years. Again, my most sincere thoughts are with you in this undoubtedly difficult time.

Sincerely,

Wayne Patterson

I had the pleasure of meeting Toni through the Michigan County Social Service Association. I should have known her, we grew up in the same city and attended the same high school. My sister was best friends with her sister. I was so impressed by her intelligence and her willingness to right a wrong. She truly cared about people and when people met her, they cared about her. I will miss sitting next to Toni at MCSSA meetings and benefitting from her wisdom. Your loss is our loss and a loss to her community. I will miss her.
