Tonya Marie Dilley
We celebrate the life, love and friendship of Tonya Marie Dilley who passed away at San Antonio Hospital on January 4, 2014. Tonya was born at Pomona Valley Hospital on August 11, 1972 to Joyce Dilley and Ron Dilley. She was the youngest in the family only to her older brother, Tony Dilley. Tonya is survived by her son Adam, her mother Joyce, her brother Tony, her nephew, Anthony, her niece, Allison, and many aunts, uncles, cousins and loved ones. The love for her son Adam was inspiring to watch. She was a devoted mother who did an incredible job raising her only son. Tonya was also a devoted daughter, sister and aunt to her only nephew and niece. She was many things to many people and treated everybody with kindness. Tonya was a loyal person and was loved by all who were blessed to have known her. Tonya attended Don Antonio Lugo High School . Tonya worked in retail at Walgreens in Ontario for over 6 years and she will be missed by her co-workers and customers she worked with and cared for deeply. The family has requested any donations be made to "Autism Speaks" in Tonya's name in honor of her nephew, Anthony, diagnosed with the disorder. A celebration of Tonya's amazing life will be held on Friday, January 17, 2014, at 1pm at Drapers Mortuary in Ontario , 811 North Mountain Avenue .

Dearest Tonya: Although I never met you personally, I feel as though I knew you in a small way through your wonderful mother, Joyce, who is a dear friend and former colleague at First Transit. She spoke about you often and was very proud of you. My sincerest condolences and prayers go out to the entire Dilley family. As per the family's request I will be making a donation in your honor in your nephew's name to Autism speaks.

Dear God thank you for letting us share your Tonya in our lives..
We will all miss her..My heart breaks for her "Adam" and my condolences to her whole family.. but know God says if we believe than we will see her again.
I think I will miss you the most at Christmas time Tonya, and I'd like to think I was the only one that you gave such special attention to every year, standing by my side for hours making sure my cards and cups turned out just perfect..but I'm sure there were countless other customers because that's just the kind of girl you were.
Adam, I know the apple didn't fall far from the tree, because I'm the one that you sat down next to as your mom told you about our friendship back when she worked at the sandwich shop, years and years ago. Just like your mom you sat down to help me and fought so hard to not except a tip! I pray for you and thank God he blessed you with such a wonderful mother. You will always have her memories and know you were the most important one in her life.
Sincerely, Mrs.JoAnn Frye Chino Hills Transmission (909)591-0449
