PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personality

Personality: Friendly, personable, good sense of humor, emotional to some extent, and has excellent communication skills. She is not afraid of taking on anything new as long as it holds her interest. Anything that does not present a good challenge is deemed boring. She is competitive by nature.
Personal Assessment: "I am a "loner" - unconventional by most standards. I enjoy solitude, but know that is not always possible."
Personal Beliefs: "I believe that people are likened to fledgling birds. Some stand around flapping their wings, reluctant to leave the nest. Some take off running and fall to the ground. And some go to the edge of the nest, flap their wings and take flight, catching the first breeze and begin to soar. And oh, how I love the solitude of soaring." *smile*

PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS

* Major Heath West - Courtship and Marriage Their marriage produced two children, Vee by adoption, and Garth by natural birth. Their three-year marriage dissolved due to Kerelian Law marriage dictate, and the fact that Heath was MIA presumed dead.

Ambassador Tallis Rhul Just when Toni thought she would concentrate on her career and children, and love would pass her by, but a spooky Halloween night prove her wrong. Dressed as Helen of Troy, she met her Paris, each not knowing who the other one was, and they danced into each other's heart. But before they could reveal their identities, they lost sight of each other. However, she had hope that they would someday meet again. Tallis & Toni's Marriage: 239003.17

After her marriage to Ambassador Tallis Rhul, Toni maintained the name as Toni Turner professionally, but when accompanying her husband, she uses a name more fitting for Rhul's Bajoran heritage - Tallis Antonia.
