Dear uncle Tony, aunt Marie, cousins Meg, Pete and Liz, Misty, Abagail Lynn and Anthony III. Thinking of whom I first knew as little Tony, the baby cousin we met in Christmas of 1975 and then grew up to be cousin Tony, the collector, fixer of all, expert in electronics, keeper of the coy fish pond and big brother of four loved cousins. Our deepest sympathy for you all. Wishing you lots strength and courage to cope with his loss and face the future to enjoy live to its fullest.

My heart goes out to Tony's family. Describing him as having a 'superior' attention to detail is an understatement - as well as his love for loud music. He valued quality and doing things right. Many of my fondest memories of my youth are with Tony and his family, an I'll keep those memories forever. Thank you for being a great person.
