Tonya (Leonard) LaDue Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 27, 2024.
Baldwinsville - Tonya A. (Leonard) LaDue, 71, of Baldwinsville, NY and formerly of Vestal, NY passed away on Monday. Born in Johnson City, NY, she was raised in Vestal and has resided in the Binghamton area most of her life. Tonya was a talented Tattoo Artist in her younger years. She loved to draw, watch scary movies, murder mysteries and cute animal videos. Tonya got a kick out of watching people's reactions when she would tell stories about her life experiences, crazier the better! Most of all she loved spending time with her friends and family, whether on the phone for hours or an occasional visit. Tonya's contagious laugh and sassy self will truly be missed, but our hearts will be full of memories. Go in peace and know you're not alone, for your mother and daughter are waiting for you. She is predeceased by her mother, Ruth (Cody) Leonard, her daughter, Teal, grandson, Michael and nephew, John VanFossen.

Surviving is her father, David Leonard, daughter, Kasey E. Castetter, her son, Wayne C. Castetter II, three grandchildren; Kallie R. Castetter, Evan M. Rumpel and Iris Incitti, her brother, Brock (Linda) Leonard, sister, Kim (Bob) VanFossen, several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins.

Graveside services will be held on Friday, August 2, 2024 at 1:00 pm in Vestal Hills Memorial Park, 3997 Vestal Road, Vestal, NY 13850.

Please sign the Maurer Funeral Home Moyers Corners online guestbook for Tonya to express your condolences to her family.
