It is with a very heavy heart we share the unexpected passing of our Activity & Outreach Coordinator. Tonya was the heart and soul of STAR, Inc.’s mission and values. She loved her coworkers and all the individuals. She expanded STAR’s programming and planned the best events and activities which all the individuals loved and looked forward to. She touched many lives and we will continue to honor and carry on her legacy the best we can.
