TONI SHAFFER

Toni Jean Shaffer, 58, of New London, Missouri, died April 20, 2022, at Hannibal Regional Hospital in Hannibal, Missouri.

Toni was born October 24, 1963, in Denver, Colorado to Hurshal Waters and Juanita Lawver Waters.

She was married to William W. Shaffer on January 1, 1994, in Lewistown, Missouri. He survives.

Toni was a wonderful homemaker.  She loved being a mother and grandmother.  In the kitchen Toni was very talented.  Her family enjoyed her green chile enchiladas and burritos.  For special occasions her coconut or lemon pies were always a family request.  Trips to Vegas to play cards or the slots, catching her favorite soap opera, Young and The Restlesss or simply relaxing with her family were a few of Toni’s favorites.  If football was on, you could bet that Toni was cheering for the Denver Broncos.  During her time in Colorado Toni was even a nanny for a few of the Broncos players watching their kids.  Most of all Toni cherished the moments she shared with her family and friends and always looked forward to their times together. Toni was Christian by faith.

Other survivors include her mother, Juanita Waters of Aurora, Colorado; son, Anthony Shaffer (Lacey) of New London; sisters, Jackie Wolfgang (Tom) of Hershey, Nebraska, and Nikki Powell (Reno) fo Aurora, Colorado; grandchildren, MaRyah Shaffer, Alyce Bacon, and Carter Pruett; and several nieces and nephews.

Toni was preceded in death by her father, Hurshal Waters; brother, William Waters; and son, Matthew Shaffer.
