James Toner Obituary
Jim was a husband, dad, pop pop, brother, uncle and friend. He is survived by his loving wife Barbara of 56 years, two sons Jim and Dan, two daughers Rita and Jenn, daughter in law Vanessa, five grandchildren Jimmy, Madison, Emily, Daniel and Gavin, and siblings Patricia, Billy and Bob, as well as many family members and friends. Jim is preceded in death by his parents James and Helen and brother Eddie.
He was born in the Bronx and played basketball for the Army before joining the New York City Police Department. After being injured, he retired early and relocated from New York to Florida to raise his family.
Jim enjoyed gardening, The Rolling Stones, watching the Buccaneers, crossword puzzles, politics, and was well educated on history. He had a quick wit and laugh that could fill up a room. He was proud of his family and found simple enjoyment in gathering together for dinners and holidays, especially time spent with his grandchildren. He will be truly missed.
