Vera and I offer our condolences to Clara and the family. Tony was a true patriot and one of the Legion's hardest working members. I was honored to answer his calls to serve as a judge for many of the annual oratorical contests and partake in Clara's cookies.

My wife and I and the Hughson Post 872 extend our heartfelt Sympathy for your loss.

Tony was truly an 'Elks' Elk...it was indeed an honor to have served Modesto Elks 1282 with Brother Tony..As a new member of the Corp of Officers, Tony took me under his wing and guided me in the right direction..
Our prays are with the Family during their time of grieving .
Fraternally,
