Viola Sprigler Toby

Viola Sprigler Toby, age 99, entered eternal life on Tuesday, December 21, 2021 at her home in Floyds Knobs, Indiana. Viola grew up in the same home she passed away in.

Viola was preceded in death by her loving husband, Frank Toby, by her brothers, Wilfred and Elmer Sprigler and by her sister, Virginia Toby.
