Watonia Jacqualine Nolde

Watonia J. Nolde, age 71, was called home to rest , on June 7th 2016. Toni and her dogs spent her last few wonderful years living with her daughter Shannon and her family in Marble falls, Texas after her husband was called home. Toni grew up on a farm for most of her young life, and fondly  remembers having two pet chickens that she loved dearly as a young child; peanut and popcorn were their names. She also recalled one winter taking care of an injured dove, nursing it back to health so she could set it free in the spring. Toni was so proud when it could fly away on its own. Toni loved her family animals, and her two fur babies Bubba and Jordon. Toni lived a well traveled life. Her and her husband, Ken, traveled to many states together and had many tales to tell. Toni even got her CDL and drove a semi-truck for many years with Ken before they settled down. She had a passion for cooking, floral arranging and music. She could play almost any song by ear on the organ. Toni had many talents and skills, and was a wealth of knowledge. She will be missed dearly by all who knew her. Toni is survived by her fur babies, Jordan & Bubba; daughters Tammy & Doug Jones, Shannon & Travis Schulz, Jill & Richard McMahan, Jerri & Kerry Strauch, and Pam Nolde; brothers Jim Nauman & Greg Nauman; sisters, Gretchen Balster, and Jane Abdallah; as well as numerous Granchildren & Great-Grandchildren. Services will be private.
