Toni Sue Tindol Bowden, 70, of Midland, Texas, passed away on June 24, 2026.

She was born on September 24, 1955, in Lubbock, Texas, to Troy and Joy Tindol. She graduated from Odessa High School in 1974 and earned her associate degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant from Odessa College in 1994, working in that profession for 20 years as a labor of love.
