There were so many things that werent said, conversations we still needed to have, holidays to celebrate and memories to make...
I hope you knew how much you were loved. Your absence will always be felt and the memories made with you will never fade away. I take comfort in your boys Jonah and Michael, and as I watch them grow I will look for you in their smile, in their eyes and in their laughter and with a heavy heart Ill smile while thinking of you.

I love you Tobi

To my friend and coworker, I will miss your jokes and your infectious smile. You were one of the most hard working deputies I have had the pleasure of working with. You will be dearly missed. My heart and prayers go out to your family. We truly lost a gem. Shine bright up there.

Even after 20 years, youre still one of my favorite people in the world. Youre the one I could always count on, the one who always made me laugh, the one who ALWAYS had my back. I wish I had the opportunity to tell you how much you mean to me. I wish you knew how much you were loved by all those people whose lives you touched. You always put everyone before yourself. You always went out of your way to help others and you ALWAYS made everyone feel special. Your death leaves me completely heartbroken knowing that I will no longer see your lovely smile, knowing that I will never again see your name on my caller ID. Im grateful for not only knowing you, but for calling you my friend. My favorite memories are my memories with you and I will hold on to those forever. I will miss you every single day of my life and I will love you forever

My brother, what can I say but my heart is missing another special part. I will miss that love we had for each other. We had are falling out but when it came to it, that love was strong and it over came everything. I will miss how you laughed at my dumb jokes and that laugh made it so much funnier. I will always remember our last night together watching the Superbowl, how we yelled at the TV when they had the bad calls, and how we celebrated when my 49ers scored. I know I said I love you till the day we are gone that was a lie cause that love will go beyond that. You were that laughter that will always live in my heart. Thank you for being there for me when times were tough. My heart cries for you. You will always be loved and remembered. My brother Toby, out of the 14 of us you were one of a kind. Thanks a million.

My cousin, you will always remain in our hearts and memories. You always had a great smile and great attitude. I remember growing up with all of you and seeing each other every time in Mexico. The last time I saw you was at the Holy Supper in San Bernardino, you told me you were so happy to have made it and I was so happy to see you! I miss you!!! I will never forget you! Love always,

I didnt know Tobi outside of work. But at work he was always cracking jokes and trying to make people laugh. He was always quick to pick up calls. From what I know from working with him and the stories Ive heard from coworkers and friends he was a great guy. He will truly be missed by many. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.
