these are the links to the three articles that have been done about Toni's signing a soccer scholarship with Mt Olive, N.C. You may have to copy and paste them into your browser to view if they don't link up from here. You can also go to al.com and search DeVaney for the first two and gulfcoastnewspapers.com for the last one. I believe she has won the hearts of this entire area, our Toni. She has also been nominated as a prom queen candidate for this weekends prom, and has been selected to throw the first pitch at opening ceremonies for the recreation baseball/softball season (usually the mayor gets to do that) the same day as prom. She plans to try to do some of the prom on crutches, depending on what Doctor says friday when we go back. Locals, don't forget the benefit that Tipsea's is having on Sunday (check the flyer).

Keep smiling

Laurel (for Toni)

  2. Hey Girl! I heard on radio WXBM about your benefit this weekend and about your recovery. I really do wish I could attend the benefit, but I am working all weekend @ Crocs, so I will have to miss it. I am praying that you have a great turn out and the weather will be beautiful. I am sure you will have fun visiting with everyone as you always do, you little social butterfly! LOL! May God continue to bless you and your family! Good luck at the Dr. tomrrow and have fun @ Prom, you deserve it!
    I love ya!
