Tony was the best brother. I can’t tell the number of times that he bailed me out of trouble. He was always there for me. He loved his family unconditionally. I love very much, I will miss him. I know Tony is resting now with Jesus. Praying for our family
I’m so sorry to hear this. What a great guy! My heart breaks for all the people he loved and those who loved him especially his family. I hope all the happy memories help you through this difficult time.
I remember one of the years we came to visit from California (before we move there) and we were visiting Tony and his family. I was walking around outside and saw some kind of HUGE bug and screamed. Tony came over and asked me what was wrong and I pointed at the bug. He laughed so hard and told me it was harmless because it was dead! He picked it up and showed me and told me all about the bug. It’s a random memory, but one that always stuck with me bc bugs are gross and he picked that sucker up like it was a piece of candy! Haha Wish I could be there to give you all a hug and just mourn with you.
Debra,, We are so very sorry for your families loss. There was no doubt the love he had for you, the kids and the grandkids. He was always poking fun at the girls and could always make them laugh. You know you all are like family to us. We love you all and are sending prayers your way!
Mary Stevens, I knew Tony when he was younger,he was a great guy, everyone loved him
