Obituary of Tonee Ann Gevedon
Our loving mother, wife, sister and grammy Tonee Ann Gevedon unexpectedly passed away on
Saturday January 20th 2024. Tonee was born on August 7th 1958 to parents Jesus Gonzales
and Mary Lou Corso in Reseda California. Tonee had two older sisters Candee and Susan.
Upon graduating from Cleveland High School in 1976 Tonee got Married and became a mother
of two children, Vincent George Price and Jessika Ann Price. While being a wonderful mother
Tonee worked at Savon as the manager and later on worked for a property management
company. Tonee decided to retire early and dedicate her life to being a full time mom. She never
missed any baseball games, or school functions for Vince and Jessika. In 1995 Tonee moved to
Temecula California with her kids. In May of 2001 Tonee became a grandmother to Kayleigh.
Having Kayleigh around brought so much joy to her. She was diligent in helping get her to
school and home, water polo games and Tae Kwon Do competitions and practices. One of
Tonee’s greatest joys was being “Grammy”. She has a knack of making sure Kayleigh had her
Sunny Delight and vitamins every morning and was never late for school drop off and pick ups.
In 2006 Tonee met the love of her life Bill Gevedon. They met on April 12th 2002 on a blind
date. Bill enjoyed spoiling Tonee the way she deserved and throughout their entire marriage Bill
and Tonee were inseparable. Bill loved buying jewelry and arranging flowers and surprising her
with fresh bouquets on a regular basis. Tonee loved Bill and loved to spoil him with her
homemade meatloaf and cherry pies. They both loved spending time with their dogs over the
years as well. First Lucy and most recently Angel. Angel loved hopping onto Tonee’s lap and
cuddling until she fell asleep.
Tonee lived an abundant life surrounded by many friends and family who loved her so much.
Tonee had an infatuation with Tigger, decorated her house with many and even got a tattoo of
Tigger.
In October of 2022 Tonee became the Mother of the Bride when her daughter Jessika Married
Chase Sexton. Watching her daughter marry her soul mate was a special moment for Tonee.
She was so delighted to be included in every moment of Jessika’s wedding. In 2023 Tonee was
able to see her only granddaughter, Kayleigh graduate from college and walk across the stage
to receive her degree in Business. She enjoyed going out to breakfast with Bill and the family
and taking trips to the beach to see sea lions.
Tonee is preceded in death by her Mother Mary Lou Parks, her Father Jesus Gonzales
step-mother Freda Gonzales.
