Met Tony 20 years ago at a Centerville Optimist Club meeting. We became fast friends and shared a mutual fan interest in OSU football. He represented me serveral times in business acquisitions and once in a Breach of Fiduciary Duty case that resulted in a large settlement in my favor. Forever grateful to Tony and he will be missed by many.
