Dear Tony, Tolee and Marsten,
I was very sorry to read about your dad. While I didn't know him well, I do remember he always had a smile on his face. I had wanted to go to the service today, but had company. Just wanted to let you know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

In this life, friendship is invaluable. Tony Blow, Uncle Tony, was a friend to the Hazel family for over 30 years. We honor Tony’s friendship and offer our love and support to Aunt Charlotte, Tolee, Marston and Allen.

Sincerely,
Curtis and Marvis Hazel, Anita (Hazel) Taylor and Lydia (Hazel) Hardy

Dear Charlotte, Allen, Tolee, and Marston,

My condolences for the loss of Tony. My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to you at this time since I can be there with you in person.

As with Sneeze, the memories of others brought back similar memories for me and more. The times our families spent together are very much a part of my life and Tony was a big part of those times. Rejoice in the people he touched and lives he influenced.

What a sad message. I didn't know Tony well at all, but he and all the Blows were so important to my mother, Cynthia Mead Watkins.
When she passed, we had a memorial for her where she lived at Greenspring in Springfield VA. I remember looking up at a tall, nattily dressed man, who strode down the sidewalk swinging his umbrella and looking for all as if he were strolling in the park. As soon as I approached him, I said, "You must be Tony Blow!" and it was, and it meant so much to our...

I still have an 8mm film of Steffi & I in the pool at Nelson House, in the 50's. I'm so greatfull to Tony for retrieving "The wolf in sheep's clothing" pen & ink that my dad had discarded while visiting the Blows. I wish him new adventures on the other side, and pray he rejoices with other pals who have crossed over before him. The Bourdelle family is with you in loving spirit. Peter (Allentown PA)

I am so sorry and wanted to offer my condolences. I can only imagine how difficult this is for you.

As I read the condolences, I'm struck how the memories are so much like my own and they bring up a thousand memories more.

Tony and you were a wonderful, happy part of my memories. Thank you for sharing him with all of us.

Tony left his indelible mark on each of you and even though he has passed, he is still very much alive through each of you.

My sincere condolances to all. Although my assocation with Tony was casual I respected him and enjoyed his wit.

Dear Alan Tony and Marston,
Sorry about your dad,he was always a fun and nice person.Dennis Anderson
