| TONI LYNN BUCHERT GREECE RHS CLASS OF 1963 |
Good Afternoon everyone,
Born to Anton Frank Buchert and Audrey Alice Pittelli Buchert on May 26, 1945 in Philadelphia, PA., to all who knew her, Toni was a kind and extraordinary woman.
She attended school at Randolph AFB High School ('63) and was part of its first graduating class. In 1966 she married Michael Greece in San Antonio, Texas and together, they had two loving children.
She attended Draughon Business College and later became a very successful sales representative for several retail businesses. Her knowledge and work ethic were well known throughout the flooring and construction industries.
Toni was a woman of many talents and interests.
She was an intellectual, a gourmet cook, an accomplished pianist, an avid reader, and a true patriot. She was also a patron of the arts and enjoyed the symphony regularly. Her generous spirit and optimistic nature were instantly recognized by everyone she met. Toni was a loyal friend to all who knew her.
She was a woman of strong faith, resilience and determination. Her voice was clear, articulate and strong, like her indomitable Spirit.
Her doctors described her as a “force of nature” and a "steel magnolia" because against all odds, she persevered. Her influence will forever remain in the lives and hearts of many.
Toni's faith in her Savior, Jesus Christ, was unwavering and she relied upon His mercy and grace through many mortal trials. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and took every opportunity she was given to serve others through her church activity.
Toni is preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Scott Anton Buchert.
She is survived by her children, Marc Greece and Michelle Greece Bahjat (Sib), her sister Audrey Alice O'Banion (Melbourne) and her precious grandchildren, Zoe Bahjat, Forest Greece, Dahlia Greece, her niece and nephew Leslie O’Banion and Melbourne O’Banion III, and her dearly loved stepchildren, Erik, Chad and Amy Skinner.
Viewing will be on October 30, 2024 at 12:00 noon at Sunset Memorial Funeral Home.
