Anthony James Bonner, JR

I guess I am taking up bandwidth but I feel compelled to say more.

When David and Alice Welden hired me back in 09/1979 for the startup of the Alumax project; you were there. Employee # 1. We hit off. Our 1st trip together was Stamas Yachts in Tarpon Springs, FL. If it weren't for your guidance/knowledge I am not sure I could of done my part.

We were not just coworkers but close friends. Ball games. Countless waffle house luncheons after you retired.

I'm forever grateful you texted me telling me to come see you at the hospital. We spent over an hour down memory lane until you said 'time to go'. And I knew in my heart what you exactly meant. Less than a day later I got a message from your daughter Colleen (#2) that you passed. You will always be with me!

Tony is the most memorable and caring coworker and mentor in my entire life. Tony was always available for listening, helping, and especially teaching. Tony was why The System Worked. I would be there to honor Tony and his family if I could. We are out of country. Ray and Kathy; Adele and I will be at Tony's graveside this next week and share our loving experiences with him.
Sincerely,
Marshall and Adele Hernandez

Tony, words alone can not describe how much you are missed. You know I would be there to honor you but, sadly, I am in Thailand.
