He was born on July 28, 1924 at Big Ugly, WV , the son of the late John C. Toney and Martha Lucas Toney. He was a member of Pineview Freewill Baptist Church where he had served as a Deacon for many years. He served the Lord for 80 years of his 91 years here on this earth. He never met a stranger. When he met someone new, he always took the opportunity to share the word of God with them. He could stand for hours and talk about the Lord and salvation. He became a Christian at the young age of 11. In the summer, he could always be seen in his garden. He gardened for 60 years until his health no longer allowed him to garden. He hauled timber in 1948 and 1949. He served in the Korean War from 1950-1951. He married Lois Ruth Byers of Sun, WV, on September 11, 1952. In 1953 he became a bus driver, a job he loved. He quit bus driving for a while and worked 5 years at Pace and Byer Construction Company. He worked construction for a short time in Virginia and Pennsylvania and worked with a fencing crew in Wayne County before returning to driving a school bus. After 28 years of driving, he retired in 1989. In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his son, Edward Wayne Toney, brothers, Millard, Blucher, Sid, and Bill Toney, sisters, Willa Adkins, Viola Hughes, and Rebel Toney, and grandson, Edward Wayne Toney. (SURVIVORS OMITTED) It’s not easy to give up a loved one, no matter how prepared we may think we are but knowing him and what his life was all about is a blessing. So remember his smile, remember his laugh, remember his deep love for God, his love for his family and friends, and hopefully all will join him again someday. I am sure he will be looking for all of us. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who loved him. Services will be conducted at 1:00 P.M. Monday, July 18, 2016 at Pineview Freewill Baptist Church at Big Ugly, WV with Rev. Ernest Neace and Oshel Bell officiating. Burial will follow at the Edward Wayne Toney Memorial Cemetery at Ranger, WV. Friends may call from 5:30 P.M. until 9:00 P.M, Sunday, July 17, 2016 at Evans Funeral Home and Cremation Services at Chapmanville, WV. Evans Funeral Home and Cremation Services at Chapmanville, WV are in charge of the arrangements. Published by The Logan Banner from Jul. 16 to Jul. 17, 2016.
