Toker (née Kuklya) Ida Berovna (18 October 1946, Riga) — engineer-economist.

Ida Toker was born into the family of a worker, Ber Idelevich Kuklya (1903, Rēzekne), and a hairdresser, Elka Itsikovna Kuklya (née Shugal or Shugol) (1914, Rēzekne).

She graduated from Riga Secondary School No. 43 in 1965 and from the evening department of the Latvian State University in 1972. She worked as a draftswoman, technician-technologist, and senior technician-technologist at the VEF factory (1967–1969), was dependent on her husband (1969–1970), and then worked as a senior technician at the Baltic Railway Administration (1970–1977). From 1977, she was again dependent on her husband.

In marriage with Aba Gertovich Toker (1946, Riga), a son was born: Dan Abovich Toker (1972, Riga).

In 1978, Ida Toker received permission to emigrate to Israel, where since 1975 her uncle (the husband of her mother’s sister), Semen Ilyich (Elyasovich) Kur (1927, Riga), had been living.
