Rest in peace my friend

I will never forget this man. Not only was he my friend but my tattoo artist and he was going to teach me to build his machines. I loved this man like a brother and spent a lot of time with him at his home in GA. RIP my sweetest friend and the world was a better place with you in it.

I´ve known Tony since elementary school at Elvira in 1971 and through high school. I´ve learned he was a world renowned tattoo artist, what an outstanding achievement. Sad to hear of his passing. He was a friend. RIP brother.

I am so saddened to hear of his death Tony was a friend I met him years ago at the first salt lake convention My first tattoo from him We became friends I will miss him

My condolences & prayers to the Olivia's family. I clearly recall when Steve was impressed and praising Anthony's art work in tattooing.
