Kelli Romay Toone-Gates, transcended from this earth on May 27, 2021 due to a short-term illness. She was born on October 2, 1967 at Fordham Road Hospital in the Bronx to her parents the late Leona and Jonathan Toone. Although Kelli parted ways with us way too soon, she turned to God and found love and connection with the Lord. She leaves behind her partner life for the past 25 years, Troy Gates; her children, Dijon Toone, Denzel Robinson, Kayla Gates, and Kimberly Gates; siblings, Louis Chambers, Patricia Chambers, Julie Toone, Jonathan Toone, Alaya Toone and Kimberly McDaniel; three grandchildren Shyasia Toone, Alaya Toone and Kamryn Arrastia; three broth-in-laws; nine nieces and nephews; six great nieces and nephews; and so many good family and friends. Kelli will be missed and loved but she wioll never be forgotten.
