Alice “Toni” Stephenson, 86, of Skaneateles passed away on April 22, 2017, at Matthew House. Toni worked in retail as an associate for the Casual Corner Group. She was an interior decorator and many years ago she had a shop in Skaneateles with her partner Pat Bowling called Interior Design Associates. She was very involved with the Skaneateles Polo Club, doing their PR for them. As one of her friends at the gateway said, Toni was a very elegant and wise private lady. That was my mom. She will be missed.
Toni was predeceased by her husband John R. Stephenson, her sons Kenneth and John R., Jr., and a brother Thomas. She is survived by her daughter Jacquelyn Bay, her son-in-law John W. Bay, her grandson Harley Stephenson and her daughter-in-law Jennifer. We want to thank Wendy at Matthew House and their amazing staff and volunteers. It is truly a wonderful place. Per Toni’s wishes there will be no calling hours and services will be private. Donations can be made to Matthew House 43 Metcalf Drive, Auburn, NY 13021.
