Not sure what to say?

Tamara, was so saddened to "just" see Tonja's passing. I've thought of you and your family so often through the years. Reach out if you have interest. Antoinette

Hello Tamara, I'm not sure if you are still looking at these, but I knew Tonja and Steve from Steve living in Australia. I came to live with them as a teenage girl for 3 months back in 1993 (I believe we may have met as I also stayed at Tom and Judy's as well) and they both made a life changing difference to me. If you are able can you contact me please on my email. Thank you

Heartbroken to hear of Tonja's passing. Tonja and I were childhood friends growing up in Seattle. Even though we went to different schools, I will always cherish the years together that were filled with good times and laughter, along with her family. Until we meet again ~ Peace to her memories.

I got to know Tonja through her husband, Steve Kelly, who I worked with. I always enjoyed my time visiting with them both talking about our teaching careers. Tonja was a breath of fresh air, with a great sense of humor. Im saddened to hear of her passing. May she and Steve be at peace together now. Love to her family during this difficult time.

I was proud to work beside Tonja at Christ the King Catholic School! Rest in peace, Oh, Captain My Captain!

My favorite picture of my sister.

I went to Blanchet with Tonja and graduated in 1983 as well. I have great memories of the school and the people that were there and are always saddened when we lose another of our class.Am thinking about her family and friends at this hard time. peace!
