Michael Byron Toney, a former regional sales manager for Midlothian, Texas-based supplier Ennis, Inc. (PPAI 280026), passed away on February 19 in Fullerton, California. He was 67.
Toney, a graduate of Ohio University, spent more than 30 years in the print business, first with Datagraphics and later with Printegra, which Ennis acquired in 2012. He remained with Ennis until this past November.
“Michael was the type of salesperson who would go out of his way to help all of his customers, who to him were really his friends,” says Terry Pennington, Ennis vice president of sales. “The entire Ennis family extends their heartfelt condolences and sympathies to Michael’s family, friends and coworkers.”
Toney is survived by his mother, Anne Toney; wife, Dolores; son, Jonathan; daughter, Jennifer Beck and her husband Luke; granddaughters Kensington and Mackinleigh Beck; and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held at 10 am Saturday at COR Church in Irvine, California. A celebration of life will be held immediately following the service.
