Born in Toledo, Ohio, she grew up in St. Stanislaus Parish, graduated from Notre Dame Academy in 1955 and attended Mary Manse College in Toledo. She was an active member of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish and was also a teacher's aide at Lourdes School for many years. After moving to Texas, she worked at Moto-Mirror Inc. in Arlington until her retirement. She loved to travel, especially to London, and was a dedicated Texas Rangers baseball fan. As a voracious reader, she ardently supported the Arlington Public Library system. Toni was a touchstone for her many groups of family and friends who will sorely miss her enthusiasm, humor and generosity.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Anthony and Genevieve Urzykowski Lewandowski.
