I am sadden and my heart is broken. I am sending my love, prayers and condolences to the family. I first met Toni when she was in the 3rd grade at Kensington Elementary School and I was her School Counselor. Back then she was such a pleasant student. Then when I moved to Andrews High School in January 2016 Toni was there. We talked and laughed and both said that life is a circle with me being back with some of my elementary students again, Well, I fell in love with Toni's smile and positive attitude. Toni was such a strong and courageous young lady. I love her spirit and positive attitude. Toni was never negative or she never complained about anything in spite of her illness. Toni gave me life and energy. She was very excited about school and wanted to be there with her friends. As I type this message, I realize that I have many memories of Toni. We laughed and talked about her Make A Wish vacation to Disney World. We talked about her favorite Disney characters. I am truly going to miss her smile, her laughter and our conversations. Toni we love you but God loves you best. Sleep on my beautiful Princess.. Love always, Your School Counselor Dr. Jacqueline M. Geathers
