I lived in North Square Hampstead Garden Suburb in the early 1960s. Our neighbours were the O´Rourkes. The family included identical twins Tony and Paul, known to all as `TonyPaul´. As I recall only their mother could tell which one was which. The only other thing I remember was going round one morning to find them having chocolate cake for breakfast. In 1960s England this was unimaginably glamorous and the way I imagined all Americans lived. I think of them whenever I think of my old home. Then today, for no particular reason, I Googled them and this page turned up. I am certain this is the same family. Apologies if not. Very best wishes.

Dear Suzy, I just heard the very sad news and I wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family. Steven passed away last year but I know he would want me to tell you how very fond of Tony he was during their time together in Coral Springs. Tony was a force and we both truly adored him.

Dear Suzy and Family,

I was fortunate early in my career, as General Manager of Park Hyatt BC 2006-2010, to have Tony as a seasoned and strategic partner of the BC Resort Company. Always quick witted and straight forward, Tony brought his smarts and tenacity each and every day. I learned from him and I respected him. He was a role model on how to live life. Please know my wife, Meryl, and I offer you our condolences and prayers.

He always had a solution. He was always smiling and optimistic. He was a leader extraordinaire and a solid friend. I will miss him. I cannot imagine the empty space he's left in your life.

Dearest Suzy and family:

My heart aches for you. I have known Tony since we were next door neighbors in Kailua. We were inseparable for the four years he lived in Hawaii, and share many, many adventures. I am so grateful for having known him and to call him my friend. I will never forget his crooked smile, the twinkle in his eyes, and the incredible memories we made that will be with me forever.

Dear Suzy and family,
Please accept our most sincere condolences on the passing of our beloved friend and former boss/leader, Tony. We have the fondest memories of our working period with him in the City of Coral Springs where he left lasting and significant changes. Later we kept in touch and continued our relationship as friends. His sudden passing leaves us with sadness as we will always remember his sense of humor and his charming smile. May God give you and your children the strength you need to deal with his loss. Our love and prayers are with you.
