Patricia Toone Obituary

Patricia Hancock Toone left us peacefully on June 11, 2024.


Pat was born on October 14, 1942 in Tremonton, Utah and spent her formative years in the shadows of the Wasatch Mountains between Garland and Provo Utah graduating from Brigham Young High School in 1960. In high school, she was a social butterfly who participated in chorus, pep club, ski club, forensics, model UN, High Steppers, and Spanish club. Pat's family moved to Tucson in 1960, where Pat attended the University of Arizona graduating in 1964.


Pat loved golf and bridge. She was a pianist, a teacher, a golfer, a pilot, and a dog lover. She was a remarkable and loving daughter, wife, cousin, friend, and neighbor. She married Eugene Toone in 1987 and they enjoyed traveling the world visiting every continent. She loved Tucson and spending her summers in Pinetop.


Pat is preceded in death by her husband, Eugene Toone, her parents, Adele and Morck Hancock, and her brother, Brent Hanni Hancock.

My condolences and love to Pats family at this tough time.. I knew Pat all through High School (BYH) 1950's..She was a great Dancer.. We became friends right from the Start and dated the summer 1957...She was a great Gal and we had lot's of fun together...I can't say enough good about her... So Sorry I lost track of her for all these years... I remember going in the Convertible up canyon Road in Provo Utah and driving directly under an Apple Tree and picking Green Apples...We then would put salt on them and eat away...She always had a kind word to say and sometime a hug if I was lucky...See you soon Pat and thanks for the memories they were a blast of fun...Love you Forever Lonnie.
