I am so sorry for your loss. Everyone who knew Tony loved and respected him. My brother (Jack Booher) and I lived on Glenwood Avenue and grew up with Tony and Bill. He was at our house many times through the years during our "growing up" years and even then it was obvious he was a kind and honorable person. I ran into him several years ago when he was involved with the racquet ball association and that same kindness and honor was present in his actions. He gave of himself and served his country well and was a man his family could be proud of. He was a true gentleman!
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
