Antonia Wagner Obituary
A 1958 graduate of Greenville High School , she enrolled at Winthrop
College, where she received a Bachelor's Degree in Education in 1962. She taught at Mecklenburg and Greenville High Schools until she enrolled at The University of Kansas and earned a Master's Degree. In 1972, she began teaching at Lawrence KS West Junior High, a job that lasted until her retirement in 2000.
Antonia returned to her hometown and began another teaching position at Charter HIgh School, moving on from there to Greenville Technical College, where she retired in 2015 as an Assistant Professor.
She lived her dream of teaching and insisted that the youngsters were the ones who inspired her. She loved every student who attended her classes, KU Jayhawks basketball and traveling the world. Her favorite journeys, though, were the week long tours of Mexico during the summers with groups of her students at Lawerence West.
Antonia is survived by a sister, Bonnie W. Sey- mour of Greenville.
A private service was held at an earlier date, Memorials can be made to Winthrop University,
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or the charity of your choice.

Oh "Mom". I just got you back. Now I know why you didn't write me back after my last letter. I loved you as much as my real mom. You were my favorite even though I sucked at Spanish. I will never forget traveling with you to Mexico. It was one of the highlights of my life. Every time I see the pyramid of the great sun or my thoughts wander to that huge pool not we had at the hotel presidente. I was just telling my daughter about our travels. Every day of those West Junior High days, I would visit you telling you good morning and goodbye.
I'll never forget you. You meant the world to me "Mom" and made my life better. Love you always Kerry Edson

My deepest sympathy to the Family in the loss of your loved one. Please find comfort in knowing God is close to the brokenhearted. May the God of all comfort give you peace and strength to endure in the days ahead (Jeremiah 29:11).

Toni would come to school early every day. Her favorite television show was South Park and she kept me informed about the latest outrageous episode. The world was a better place with her in it. She will be missed.
