HI Rosanne,
I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am to hear about your loss. My Mom called and told me that Tony had passed away. It is hard to believe that almost 40 years has gone by since were in school, but I do still think of you. I hope that you are doing well and that your family is able to give you the support that you need during this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Tony I am honored to be the very first to sign your guestbook. Seems like just yesterday I saw you smiling, playing with the kids, and working in the yard. You were a great father in law and grandfather to my children. I can't say thank you enough for accepting me as part of your family and treating my family as your own. There is a big hole in all of our hearts but we know you are in a better place now and aren't suffering. Thank you for the memories! Love, Ven, Bryanne, Decker, Edie Rose, Katie Brooke
