To all of Tony's family.....as one of the auxiliary "breakfast buddies" , I enjoyed Tony's humor immensely as he often made many people's day! I didn't really know him well but enjoyed watching his interactions and generosity with his family as they visited him at his breakfast nook. Much love and peace to you all as you are still blessed with many wonderful memories.......With many condolences.

To my wonderful friend Vanessa and her family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I did have the pleasure of spending time with your father (remember that fabulous dinner he took us to?)and he was an amazing man who loved you so much. Anyone who has spent time with the two of you can see that. I know that he was proud to have raised such a strong and beautiful young woman. You truly exhibit grace under pressure and I'm sure that was put to the test in the last few days. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
