I will always remember your beautiful, giving and loving spirit. From the moment of our first introduction as parents of college freshmen, to your last attendance at our annual party. I know that you are resting in the arms of our Creator. You are forever in the hearts of the Austin Family. Much love and warm hugs to your family from ours.🙏🏾🙏🏾💕💕

Toye was a light for everyone she met—and not just because she had a smile that could light up a room. Toye could easily have become bitter and hopeless after Bryant’s death, but she chose to become a gun violence prevention advocate instead. Her work with Moms Demand Action was greatly admired, and her survivor story will continue to help raise awareness and inspire volunteers to #KeepGoing. The world was a better place because of Toye. She will be greatly missed.
