Poetic Obituaries: Dan Toney was a teacher

at the Cabell County school for 36 years. He's carried the titles of coach, teacher, father, husband and son.

Last year on Father's day, his children surprised him with a published book of his poetry.

Papaw I just want to tell you how much daddy and I miss you.
When I read you're poetry book I think of you and mamaw Joyce.
I also think of Kay, she is an inspiration to me.
Papaw if you had one more day on Earth I swear to you, you wouldn't be in pain, you would be surrounded by lots of people that love and care about you as much as I do.
Papaw if only you had one more day, when you used to hold me in you're arms and always tell me I was the only girl in you're future, and I would always say "No im not the only one papaw, but im one of the most important".
I love you papaw and i wish you could hold me in you're arms again and tell me i was you're only girl.
I LOVE YOU PAPAW!!!
Hope you're having a GREAT time in heaven.
Bye,
from you're number one grand-daughter,
