Toni was born October 22, 1949 in Davenport, Iowa, the daughter of Dale & Delpha "Duff" (Thornton) Gillam. After graduating from Bettendorf High School in 1967, she graduated from Stewart School of Hairstyling.

On April 19, 1969, Toni was united in marriage to the love of her life, William L. Robertson at the First Baptist Church in Bettendorf. They created a beautiful, fulfilling life and shared 57 years together.

After graduating from hairstyling school, she was a beautician for 25 years with her cousin and life long friend Colleen Parrick. Together they owned Creative Hair Designers. After various other jobs, including Von Maur and Wells Fargo, she became a bank teller for First Central State Bank in Le Claire for many years until she and Bill retired together in 2015.

Toni's favorite job ever was being a grandma. Her greatest joy in life was watching her grandchildren grow and supporting them in all that they loved. While she was able, she never missed a game, race, show, or concert. She was always there to provide support, guidance and love and was so proud of every one of her grandchildren.

She enjoyed spending time with family, camping, Disney World, shopping, traveling and music. She was full of energy and life and was known for her sense of humor and how she always had a good time wherever she went. Family was the center of Toni's world. To know her was to love her. There are many to whom she extended her love to as if they were her own family. She had many "extra" children and grandchildren.

Toni was a devoted Iowa Hawkeyes fan. In honor of Toni, the family invites you to wear Hawkeye attire at her celebration.

Those left to honor her memory include her husband, Bill; her daughters, Missy (Paul) Bateman, Beth Jackson (Andy Slonneger) and Lori (Matt) Olderog, all of Le Claire; her grandchildren, Joshua (Megan), Noah and Lily Bateman, Katelyn (Jake) Moore, Braeden Jackson and Dani Slonneger and Cooper, Allyson and Luke Olderog. She is also remembered by her siblings, Dayle Hall of LeClaire, Dan (Collett) Gillam of Bettendorf, Jim (Lois) Taber of Indianola, Tammy (Jeff) Allen of LeClaire, close friend and sister-in-law Karen Woomert of Princeton, as well as many beloved nieces and nephews, in-laws and cousins.

Toni was preceded in death by her parents, Dale & Delpha; and her step-father, George Taber.
