No words can express the loss of our beloved, Tony. He was truly a warm and compassionate person. I have had the pleasure of knowing Tony since 1970. We went to JFK HS together, we partied together and modeled together. Tony was a talented person. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Mrs. Ball and her family. There is no greater loss than that of losing 2 children within two years. I have grown to love and care for this family like my own and I will continue to be a support vessel to them. Remember that God, will not put any more on you all that you can bear. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy does come in the morning. I love you Tony and will miss you dearly. You are now in a better place where there is no more pain or sorrow. I will always keep you and Cheryl in my heart forever. Rest in Peace, my dear Tony, you are now with your sister, Cheryl. Love, Sandra (your sister for life).
