Lavesta "Toby" Pugh

Lavesta Toby Pugh, age 58, passed away on December 14, 2025.

Born in Mobile, Alabama, Toby lived a life rooted in family, faith, and love.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Betty Bain Pugh; his father, Arthur Lavesta Pugh; his adopted mom, Kathy Garner; and his brother, Kelly Garner.

Toby is survived by his beloved wife, Tonya Pugh; his stepchildren, Tasha Gomez, Kissta King, Tony King, and Tiffany King; and his cherished grandchildren: Tanner, Mallorie, Adrian and Holly, Nikolai, Jessie, Skyla, Aiden, Gabrielle, Brayden, and Gauge. Known affectionately as “Grumps,” Toby deeply loved his grandchildren. He took great joy in teaching the kids baseball and softball, spending time with family, and shooting pool.
