Tony, I will always remember playing golf in Hawaii with you and your brother Harry. We bet a dollar for the closest shot to the pin 150 yards away on a tiny little cliff-side par 3 green overlooking a panoramic view of the sunny and beautiful Pacific Ocean. No doubt you are playing there now. You took our dollars that day along with the well-earned Duffer’s Bragging Rights for Best Hawaiin Golf Shot of the trip! The jubilation that we all shared in your moment of triumph is my utmost favorite and eternal memory of you. Motorcycle rides, jet skis and philosophising around campfires are a few examples of the many good times we shared. Your easy going manner and big loving heart will be missed by all who knew and loved you. Farewell my friend until we met again. John and Cathy Ross
I am sorry for your lost. I knew Tony from Learjet. He was a very kind person and easy to talk too. Monica Ahne
Sending deepest sympathy to Tony’s family. I loved his smile and infectious laugh. Whenever you were around him it was hard not to feel good. He was a wonderful co-worker and friend and will be miss by many. Brenda Becker
Remembering a true gentleman and friend who would go out of his way to fix any broken item his helpless neighbors could not. Tony was in his element when he was making sure everyone else’s vacation was perfect. I remember my dad sitting on the porch every morning with coffee ready for Tony to surface and make his day brighter. Rest In Peace, Tony…Bill was waiting on the porch for you! Hank DeVry and family
