I met Tony in 1981 when I was hired working under him at Honda Canada. A very kind and supportive man. He has been on my mind recently. My life is no doubt better as a direct result of knowing him. All the best to his family.

This morning when I read the Toronto Star my heart felt so sad!
I posted on my FB page to reach Tony's many friends and dealers who knew him so well! Many of us always called him Uncle Tony a true show of endearment! I am so lucky to have known him and a truer work friend is hard to find ! I am sure all his Honda Family will all remember how he touched their lives ! RIP. Tony ❤
