Tonya Kratz

Missing you....

Family is the bonds we share over the course of a lifetime. I´m forever grateful you were part of mine.

Tonya was the person best described as a ray of sunshine. Although I didn't get to spend a lot of time with her (I'll always be grateful to Terri for induction) her positive energy and love for life brightly shone through. There are very few people that can instantly make everyone, even a complete stranger, feel seen and appreciated. Tonya could, because genuinely good soul and human warmth she possessed are such a rare qualities. The world lost truly kind and decent person. All my love and support to her family and loved ones

I had the pleasure of knowing Tonya through my dear friend and colleague, Terri Arsenault. From the moment we met, Tonya´s fun-loving spirit and caring nature made her a joy to be around. We shared so many things in common-our love for theme parks, roller coasters, a good drink, and plenty of laughter. She fought her battle with such strength and bravery. My heart is heavy knowing she´s gone too soon, but I believe she´s now an angel in heaven, watching over us with that same beautiful smile.

I am so heart broken that you are gone so young. Hugs and prayers for Brad, your boys and family and friends. I always enjoyed working with you. You will be missed by so many.

Still doesn´t seem real, I know you fought hard, but are now resting easy. Prayers go out to Brad and her family. I remember you were the one that first trained me at the VA for CT, I appreciated the help and much more the friendship, you will be missed.

I think of you always Tonya and prayed so hard that you would beat this. I´m glad I got to spend time with you. You are at peace now and no longer suffering. Love you

In loving memory of a wonderful person. I have known you briefly but enough to know how kind and good a person you are and Brad. Rest easy my friend...

To Brad and family, my heart absolutely is shattered for you all. My deepest condolences. Words cannot express my sadness at such a lovely human being who was taken from you so young. Reading all the prior comments about Tonya, I see what an amazing woman she was. Generous, fun, dedicated to her family. Heaven is one brighter spot with Tonya star lighting up the sky. Rest peacefully Tonya. You fought a tough battle. So proud to have known you. Thank you for introducing me to your precious Maisie. You will never be forgotten. Always will be missed.Forever in our hearts.

It breaks my heart to see you´ve passed too early and so young.I will love and miss you forever.I pray that Brad and your boys surround themselves with God and family to help them through their loss.

Tonya were such an amazing person who lived an incredible life. I feel so lucky that you choose me to be your friend. Your shining personality will live in our hearts forever. We will see each other again in time.

I will never forget the memories we made together during our school years. To her family I´m praying for strength and comfort. I wished I could come back to Florida and say we will see each other one day again. To her best friend, I am so sorry. Tonya was one of the best by far.
