Not sure what to say?

Tony was such a great person who everyone loved him and just being around him made you smile I will always cherish the memories of him stopping by the control room at night and swap stories we both had

A hard worker who was always there when you needed him. Always friendly, and a great role model.

May you RIP my good friend. Will always remember the tough basketball games we played against each other

Condolences to Tony´s family and friends. Tony and I worked together at Flow Station 3 on the slope. We would often met at the gym or the basketball court where he would school me time after time with a smile and laughter! He was a hard worker and talked of his family with love and adoration. So sad to learn of his passing. May he rest in peace.

Tony was both a friend and co-worker. Great guy. All of us Natives working on the slope shared a special bond. Tony came out to my facility as a Drill Site lead(technical boss). I really respected him for unshackling himself from the money of the oil company to focus more on his family. That´s not something I could have done. I don´t know what to say other then Tony was a decent capable guy who commanded the respect of everyone.

I knew Tony from working on the North Slope and spending many hours on the basketball court with him after work. He always had a smile but was a fierce competitor on the basketball court. Condolences to all his family and friends. He will be missed by all. May he rest in peace.

Your smile and humor will be dearly missed Uncle Tony. Rest in peace.

Tony and I worked together on the slope but our friendship continue beyond that, being a native we bonded at work. He took me on a hunting trip out of Fort Yukon and we were blessed with a moose, I always remember him telling me we were going to clean it Indian way. All that was left was a blood spot. I definitely learn from him as a friend and coworker always willing to give a hand. His Friend A.j Varner

Enjoyed working with him on the North Slope
