Toone, 62, died from complications of cancer June 7, 2005. He was born July 1, 1942, to Evelyn Reiser and Felix Millard Toone in Salt Lake City, Utah. His seven older sisters eagerly greeted their baby brother and have showered love and affection on him ever since. He grew up in Salt Lake, graduating from South High School in 1960. Millard married Beverlee Bigler in 1962. He has said that the happiest days of his life were the days that each of his six children were born, and has always made each of us feel as if we were capable of achieving anything. He served six years in 5016th US Army Garrison Reserve unit. He worked at Bigler's Speedometer and Appliance, Inkley's Audio Visual and for the last ten years at his family business, Executive Boat and Yacht Brokerage. He loved his time on the water, especially when he captained the whole family on many sunset cruises on Lake Powell. As a diehard Parrot Head, he instilled in his children and grandchildren an appreciation for Jimmy Buffet's music and easy-going attitude and lifestyle. Every time we listen to "Fruitcakes" we will think of him smiling, singing, and dancing along with Jimmy. An outdoorsman of many interests, he enjoyed softball, camping, fishing, riding tractors and motorcycles, and teaching his younger grandkids everything he knew about horses. He loved watching his grandkids participate in soccer games, recitals, horse shows, and family gatherings. He had many good friends and cherished the time he spent with them. Millard never forgot a name or face. He knew a little bit about everything and could fix anything. A life-long member of the LDS church, he served in many capacities, particularly enjoying the times he served as assistant Scout Master and nursery leader. Millard is survived by his children Kimberlee (Ed) Michaud, Kory (Michele) Toone, Bekki Patton, Robyn (Mike) Olesko, Greg (Sharlene) Toone, their mother, Beverlee, and grandchildren Brandi, Dani, Matt, Lauren, Baylee, Nick, Oaklee, and Taylor. He is also survived by sisters Marjorie (Dick) Landeen, Wilma (Bill) Walton, Eileen Toone, Winona Woods, and Marilyn (Don) Gee. Preceded in death by his son Donovan, sisters Miriam Toone and Kathleen Weiser, and his parents. A celebration of Millard's life will be held at Memorial Estates, Mountain View, 3115 E. 7800 S. at 2 p.m. on June 11.Viewing will be held Friday, June 10th from 6-8 p.m. and one hour prior to the funeral (Casual Dress). It was Millard's request that rather than sending flowers, everyone should use the money that they would have spent on flowers to get a colonoscopy - NOW. If his cancer had been detected and treated earlier, we may have had several more years to enjoy with this good man. It goes without saying that we will miss our dad every day, but the important things he taught us will remain with us forever. Published in the Salt Lake Tribune from 6/9/2005 - 6/10/2005.
