I am shocked and saddened to learn of the loss of our voice student and friend Tony. I've known him through years of voice lessons, going to shows, and commiserating on issues of voice. He will be missed. Tony, I know you're up there starring in your own musical! - Everyone at Professional Voice Care Center

Tony was by far the kindest and most generous person I have ever met. He always made me laugh, was always there to listen, and would help anyone who needed it. If everyone could be half the person he was, this world would be a better place.
Billy, I am so sorry for your loss.

Dorothy,

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. He will get you through this. God's word says "I lift my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? it comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth" Jesus also tells us, Blessed are those who mourn, they WILL be comforted. You know how much Anthony was loved and my heart grieves with yours. I love you my sister.

Anthony:

I can't begin to tell you the hole that has been left in my heart. I have known you for so many years that the pain is unbearable. You have been my friend , my confidant and my little brotther. You have taken care of me, my Mother and coutless others. You will be missed more than you can ever know. I will miss that quick wit, that devilish laugh and that great smile. I'm quite sure that you and the Good Lord will have the only conversation about life. We here on earth will never forget you and can only hope that we will meet in the here after. For now I say so long...For we will meet again.
A most grateful friend......
