Our beloved Antoinette "Toni" Winford left this world in the blessed arms of her heavenly father on July 21, 2024 at the young age of 56. Antoinette was born to Ann & Grady D. Winford on July 5, 1968. 

She was a graduate of South Iredell High School in Troutman, NC where she still resided. On her days off she loved riding in someones passenger seat to wherever the car may have led them. 

On Sunday's she attended South Iredell AME Zion Church. Ms. Toni as she was affectionately known was always a smiling face ready to greet you with a smile. She loved sports and her favorite teams were the Dallas Cowboys and UNC Tarheels. Though she didn't have any children of her own she assisted in raising and loving on all her nieces, nephews, and daycare babies. Toni was a daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend to many; and most of all a child of God.
