Toni enjoyed her friends, family, and anybody that walked into her presence. She was one that could always smile and make it contagious for anyone around. Her positive spirit never wavered, which was a testament to her life. She made it clear that we can be positive through the worst, smile through the hard, and enjoy the good.

She is survived by her children, Angie Pestle and husband, Aaron, of Wilton, and Chase Brower and wife, Dana, of Peoria, Illinois; five grandchildren; and siblings, Ted Kochneff and Diane Lynn Kochneff, both of Muscatine.

Toni is preceded in death by her parents.
