Born on September 3, 1950, in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, the daughter of the late George Joseph and Rebecca Marion Hood Bosco.

In April 1969, while cruising the drag on a Friday night, she met a young man just out of the Army. That meeting began a lifelong love story, and the two married in June of 1970, sharing 56 wonderful years together.

From an early age, she had a passion for dance especially Shag dancing alongside her husband. She also enjoyed ice skating and was a talented artist. She was known for her cake decorating skills, often hand drawing characters and designs on cakes. Toni loved all crafts including ceramics and enjoyed learning the newest fads in crafting with her daughter.

Toni loved traveling to New York City to see musicals and visiting Disney World, especially Epcot. Above all, she was a deeply devoted wife and mother who cherished family game nights and cooked for her family.

Those left to cherish her memories include her husband, Thomas DiMashe; her daughter, Ann Marie DiMashe Sanders and husband, F. Parker Sanders; and her brother, Michael Hood of Pittsfield, Massachusetts.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Toni’s honor to Wreaths Across America at www.wreathsacrossamerica.org or to PAALS.org.
