Toni Valdez passed away on March 3, 2017 at the age of 84. She was known for her vibrant personality, dazzling beauty and her million dollar smile. She never met a stranger and thrived in the social realm.
Toni was a survivor and never backed down from any challenge. She was very active in her church, politics, numerous civic clubs and a "champion" runner until the age of 81! Her career with Bell Telephone System spanned 35 years.
She is survived by her husband of 42 years, Alfred Valdez; her stepdaughter, Lisa and husband, Lorenzo; stepson, Mark (Wendy); grandchildren, Austin (Jenae) and Bria; niece, Winter; nephews, Tommy, Billy; and dear cousins, Beth and Shane.
The family thanks her caregivers: Carmen, Jina, Luisa, and Erica. A mass was celebrated in her honor at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church. No flowers please. Donations to the Church Building Fund may be made at: 1860 Griegos Rd. Albuquerque, 87107. Please visit our online guestbook for Toni at www.FrenchFunerals.com.
