Life story

Toby was a truly extraordinary soul—someone whose love, strength, and devotion touched everyone who crossed his path. He cherished his family with a depth that words could never fully capture. His children were his world, his greatest joy, and the reason he pushed himself every single day. The way he loved them, protected them, and dreamed for them is something none of us will ever forget.

He poured that same loyalty and heart into his friendships. Toby was the kind of friend who showed up, who listened, who lifted you up without hesitation. His presence filled every room, and his laughter made even the hardest days feel lighter.

He worked tirelessly—not for recognition, not for praise—but to build a future for his family. Roman Construction & Remodeling wasn’t just a business; it was a piece of Toby’s heart. It was proof of his dedication, his resilience, and his belief in doing everything with love. Everyone knew it would succeed because anything Toby touched, he gave his whole soul to.

Toby was an amazing father, a devoted husband, a loving son, a protective brother, and a friend who felt more like family. The world feels different without him here, quieter and heavier. But his spirit hasn’t left us—not for a moment. We feel him in the small things, the big moments, the milestones he would’ve celebrated with us. We know he’s guiding us, proud of every step, every accomplishment, every tear we wipe away as we move forward carrying him in our hearts.

This tribute is just a glimpse of how much he meant to so many people. Please share your stories, photos, and videos—so his children, and the world, can always see how deeply Toby was loved and how deeply he still is. His love didn’t end. His impact didn’t end. And neither did the bond we all share with him.

Toby, you are missed beyond words, loved beyond measure, and remembered with every beat of our hearts.

What better way to connect with him then at the place we shared a bunch of picnics with the kids and where he loved it best outdoors
