I worked with Tony many years ago at IML Freight Inc.. I have many fond memories of his leadership and integrity. He truly "walked the talk" in regards to what he stood for and was a great champion of the people. I always had nothing but total respect for this good man. Dave Hill

To Tony - The BEST neighbor I have EVER had.
Always there to help. Mowed my lawn many times and usually blew snow from my drive way and sidewalk. He never complained and never asked for any thing. He was just a fantastic man and will be missed by a LOT of people
