Toni K. Wilson

Toni worked at an early age as a cook in a restaurant and as a machine operator throughout her career. She was known among her family and friends for her kind-hearted nature, selflessness, and patience. She was someone who could lighten any moment with her good humor. Even in her last moments, she was still cracking jokes. She had a gift for teaching those around her the importance of kindness and forgiveness both through her words and by example.

Toni's days were filled with activities she loved: bingo, occasional trips to the casino, sewing, baking, and cooking. She was most content when surrounded by her family and grandchildren, whose company she treasured. Her home was a gathering place where love, laughter, and acceptance were always present. Toni was known by her loved ones as "Mom Gotti" and would often laughingly tell you she was going to "Wack" you.

Toni is survived by her husband, Octavio Wilson Sr; her children, Octavio Wilson Jr, Jeannie Paez, Lisa Wilson, Aretha Rodela, and Naomi Hoskins; her brother, John Mockus; and her numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents Josephine Leases and Joseph Chiaro.
