Not sure what to say?

Kathy and family ~ I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Tony from High School. Tony was truely a wonderful caring individual. Although he is gone, he will always be there to protect you. Liz W.

Kathy, I am embarrased to tell you I have just recently found out about your loss of Tony. Yes, he was the sweetest, lovingist, happiest fella I have ever had the priviledge of knowing. We always had fun when we were growing up. I know firsthand what it is like to lose the love of your life. Believe. It will somehow get a little easier with time. Not over but easier.
I am just a couple of blocks away. Come by. We can share.
Know that he is in God's hands as well as you and...

oh my Tony, it has been over 5 months now and I still can't believe you are gone. I miss you so much! You are my best friend, my husband, my lover, my life. I don't know what I am doing without you. So much remains that reminds me of you every minute but everything is different. I love you, I will always love you. Rest easy Tony and know that you are always with me-my soulmate, my heart. I miss you-I love you.

Cathy and Boys, Im so sorry for your loss. Tony was a good guy who always made me laugh. I hate I hadnt seen you all in so long. I pray that you will find comfort in the arms of God through this tough time

To Tony's mom, wife, children and siblings: You lived not far from me when I was in High School at Reid Ross so I had the priviledge of knowing Tony & Eddie. Tony & I sat together on the bus many many mornings, he brightened up my mornings all the time with his humor and kindness. You are a special family. May God's peace and love surround you especially now during this very difficult time.

It saddens me much to see this. The Wingate family (Debbie, Tony, Susan and others) were all great kids and friends. I remember playing pool with Tony and Eddie at Tokay! Cougars at heart always. May God keep you all safe and help you through these times.

God Bless

I knew and hung out with Tony and Eddie when we were in junior high and singing with the Good News Singers. Tony was always so full of life. I am so sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you all.

Kathy and Boys, Tony and I served in Keflavek, Iceland, what a wonderful man he was and in memory will remain. My wife Cathy and I often reminisce about the Thanksgiving Day we spent with the Wingate family and friends shortly after both Tony and I were discharged from the Navy. WOW, that seems like a life time ago, in hind sight we should have made that occasion an annual event. Kathy and Boys you have been and will always be in our prayers. Love and Peace to ALL!!!

Aunt Kathy, Noah, and Dylan,

You all are in my thoughts and prayers. I love you guys!

Uncle Tony, you will be missed!
