Toni V. Ripley, 68, of Chester, VA, passed away suddenly on Saturday, July 28, 2012 after a long illness. She is survived by many cousins; and was preceded in death by her beloved mother, Mary Weaver; and aunt, Virginia Russell. Her passing will be mourned by many close friends, both far and near, who will miss her smile and her generosity. Toni was known for her great love of animals, cats in particular, and she supported rescue foundations on a regular basis. She also had a way with people, and anyone who came into contact with her on her local travels became a fan. A graveside service will be held at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at Bermuda Memorial Park in Chester, VA, with the Rev. LeJeanna Raymond officiating. Condolences may be registered online at
