HOLYOKE KENNEL CLUB MOURNS THE LOSS OF LONG-TIME MEMBER,
TINA TOOHEY
​

Tina was a ball of energy packed into a five-foot frame.
She was always on the go, always very opinionated and always the best true, loyal friend you could want.
Eleanor MacClenaghan, Tina's foster mother, interested Tina in dogs. She joined Holyoke and was on the board for a bit. Slamdunk long coated standard Dachshunds was formed. True to Tina's style, they had the best of everything. Those puppies hit the ground running and blazed trails across the country.
At American International College Tina was involved in the management of several sports teams and was considered a "" mother hen" by many of the international student athletes.
She will be missed on many fronts.
