My wife Marcia and I are so very sorry to learn of the passing of Tony last December. We had no idea until this afternoon when I was getting ready to call Tony with a question. I can say from our experience that he was one of the finest men and business professionals I have met in or out of Real Estate. Out lives are better because he was referred to us and so helpful. God Bless his family and children. Carl and Marcia York

Tony was a family friend of our family for many years. I have known him, since he was a little boy, who lived off Post Rd. He was the most handsome boy in our neighborhood. His passing came as a horrible shock, and he will be so missed. My deepest sympathy to the Rogers Family. Kathy Heckman Minor

A more fair and ethical person would be extremely difficult to find. Tony embodied all that is very good. Wishing all who loved him the very best.
