Not sure what to say?

Tony was one of the best men I have ever met; I knew him from the first time I could remember. He helped my father in so many ways. I know this is a memorial note long overdo. I just felt the need to pass along my respects to a wonderful man

Dear Betty,
It is wonderful reading this guest book and knowing the man behind the Realtor badge. Although we did not work in the same office, I remember the two of you - devoted to real estate and each other. To know of his life's contributions is to be especially grateful for his memory. May peace be yours, Pat Day

I spent 5 years as a Boy Scout in the Dunes. Tony helped all of us kids grow and learn about values and honor in life. We wanted war stories and we were taught about compassion and humanity. Tony was a tough old Marine, larger than life, but he was formative in many young peoples lives. Part of my success as an adult is due to my beloved old Scoutmaster.

Blessings to all of you.

Rev. Craig A Forwalter

Michele and Betty and family,
You are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. Tony will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

I personally will miss Tony so much. His Marine stories were amazing. As a young retired Marine he was and is an inspiration for many to follow. This is a sad day. However, as long as there is a Marine standing he will never be forgotten. He is guarding those gates with pride.

Tony will be missed greatly by those of us he lead in the Ogden Dunes Lions and especially our Memorial day celebration of the lives of those who, like Tony, served our country. One more great vet to remember and honor on future Memorial Days.

I worked with Tony and Betty many years ago as their secretary at a real estate office and have always remembered his warm smile. He would go out of his way to do anything for anybody. My condolence to you Betty and your family!
