Saddened and surprised to learn of Toni’s death. I had wondered why she and her terrier, Edward, hadn’t been
at Pastorius Park for awhile. I thought she might be traveling. Toni was a park regular, and she and Eddie could be
seen almost daily playing fetch around the park in the mornings, occasionally stopping to discuss politics, or a book.
Toni was a great supporter of The Friends of Pastorius Park and our maintenance work at Pastorius, with the
Lofgren-Seymour grant through the Philadelphia Foundation. She also pitched in to volunteer at park clean ups
in the spring, including cleaning the pond.
She will be sorely missed by our park community.
