Former neighbor, second father, Jomama forever, Toe, Mr. Toland. My heart breaks for the loss so many feel with your absence. Condolences to the Toland family.

My sincere condolences to the family. John worked with me at Walgreens for many years. He always had my utmost respect. As his manager I never doubted his devotion to duty. He will be missed. May God rest his soul.

I am sorry that I will miss the funeral as we are in Tucson for the winter. Again my sincere condolences.

Condolence from Eric Friedman on January 6th, 2020 10:24 pm

Sincerest condolences to the full Toland family. I enjoyed working with John for many years at Walgreens. He always shared a positive outlook, always knew a way to “get it done”, and never (openly) complained about the demands of a fast paced corporate campus. John set an example we’d all do well to follow.

Condolence from Linda (Suchocki) Paplauski on January 7th, 2020 8:58 am

I was deeply saddened to hear the news of John’s passing. I have so many wonderful memories of all the fun we all had together-so many years ago. In your pain and sorrow remember that he was a great man, respected and loved by all that were blessed to know him. “It is not how long a man lives, but how deep that life is.” My heartfelt condolences to the entire Toland Family.

Condolence from Kevin Walgreen on January 7th, 2020 12:11 pm

I am so very sorry to hear of John’s passing. Thank you John so very much for all the support and dedication you have given the Walgreen company. You truly were very special and will be missed, thank you for making a difference! May God Bless you John, and my deepest condolences and sympathy to your family and all those who knew you and will miss you!

Condolence from Ray & Beth ( Wehrle) Wicus on January 7th, 2020 3:58 pm

We offer our heartfelt condolences to the Toland family. John will be remembered fondly, as a most dear, kind man. May his goodness live on in all who loved him, and let his memory bring smiles. Picture Barney tapping that foot (hard!) to his accordian, and John standing, arms crossed, leaning against the kitchen counter, listening, with his quiet smile. Lucky, we were, to have him in our lives at all.

My sincere condolences to the Toland family. John was a great mentor, friend and fatherly figure to so many of us in the Walgreen family. He was always smiling, even in the most stressful of times. His laughter and bright smile were contagious. I am grateful to have known him, worked with him and been a part of his walgreen family. We will miss that light of yours JT.

Condolence from Lynn Daugherty on January 9th, 2020 9:35 pm

I want to offer my true condolences to the Toland family.

Condolence from Mike Sanalitro on January 10th, 2020 3:15 pm

I wanted to send out my heartfelt condolences to the Toland family especially my good friend Patrick. Sorry I won’t be able to attend the services.

Condolence from Paul Wehrle on January 10th, 2020 4:29 pm

Dear Joanne, Zack, Samantha, grandchildren of and brothers Mike, Pat and Rich.

So sorry to learn of the sudden loss of your rock and good friend John.

He was a classic gentleman and the world has lost a good person.

I’ll remember him plowing our driveway, roofing our garage and driving around in his blue Pontiac with the music on. Plus, always with a smile on to help through tough times and take the good times to a higher level.

Sorry I am unable to make the journey home, but instead of a candle, there will be a bonfire lite for him tonight on the east coast.

Sincerely, Paul Wehrle

Condolence from Mary Tandaric-Toland on January 10th, 2020 7:16 pm

Our sincerest sympathies to the Toland Family. John was a great person and will truly be missed

Condolence from Phil Pienkos on January 11th, 2020 7:39 pm

So sorry to hear about John. He was a great guy with a big smile and a warm laugh. It always made me happy to see him when I was visiting Chicago. He will be missed by me and I’m sure many others.

Condolence from Mark Wehrle on June 3rd, 2020 8:47 am

Joanne
I recently heard of the passing of John.
Kathy and I are so very sorry and send our sympathies to you, Zach, Samantha, Mike, Pat, and Rich. John was always the “cool” kid. His sweet kindness and helpful spirit made our lives at Cleveland Ave better knowing that John would come when we (Lee) needed his loving help.
