In Celebration of

Steve Toczyski

August 26, 1955 - October 13, 2018

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear Steve on Saturday, October 13, 2018 at the age of 63 after a brave six month battle with cancer.

Steve leaves behind his true love and wife of 38 years, Alina, and has now joined their beloved dogs, Kashmir and Layla.

He will be lovingly remembered by his family and friends, especially his best friends Danny and Jane. Steve’s wit, humour and lively discussions will also be missed by all who knew him.

Steve was a steadfast rock for his family and many friends who knew they could count on him and often sought his advice.

Steve loved playing with his dogs, enjoying a martini and casting a line at his beloved lakeside home on Pigeon Lake.

He is predeceased by his parents, Alex and Sophie and his sister, Theresa. Friends may call on at the Turner & Porter Yorke Chapel, 2357 Bloor St. West, at Windermere, on Saturday, October 27th, from 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel on Saturday, October 27th at 11:00 a.m.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Cancer Society.

Dear Alina. Although we only met Steve once and did not have the opportunity to come to know him, through your stories about Steve we will know what a great guy he was. You told Ric that he was an avid fisherman. Well, of course Ric now wants to know of all of Steve's fishing holes. We love you dearly Alina. We are very blessed that Jesus brought you into our lives. God bless you. Love Ric and Rhonda
