In memory of

Tony LaMantia is one of a kind. Just today, I started looking for a way to contact Tony. I wish I would have realized the significance of his influence much earlier and was able to thank him directly. After some very serious life reflection while in conversation with a close friend, I was talking about the many amazing influences I have had in my life and Tony was one of the top people I could remember. I just now fully realized the extent of Tony’s influence in my life. Tony is a very special person. When I was a young man in my early 20’s over 30 years ago I use to mow his lawn in Paramount CA. He recognized that I was missing the mindset that was required to move my life and my business to the next level. Tony believed in me and really tried to help me see the areas that I needed to focus on. He must of thought...wouldn’t it be tragic for this young man to continue through life and miss his opportunity to connect a few more dots in his business and his life and miss the pathway to a flourishing thriving life. He saw it crystal clear, but I did not. I knew he was offering something of great value, but I was stubborn and set on doing things my own way and my way was keeping me trapped and missing the vision I needed to grow. Tony’s sincere, authentic and caring influence has followed me every day of my life. Thanks to people like Tony, the world is a better place for his influence and contribution. I am finally on track and helping others, as well. The funny thing is I keep on running into my younger self all the time, but I never get tired of sharing the message. Thank you Tony for your big heart. You live on in the hearts and minds of all who had the privilege to know you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Jane and your family. God bless you all.
