Tony was such a great guy, and a wonderful father to Chasiti and TJ. He will be greatly missed. My prayers go out to the Gilberts. Superman--you taught me who Triumph was!

Tony was devoted to his children, loyal to his family, and still an independent spirit who set his own course. He never judged - he accepted. His influence on our growing-up years cannot be forgotten. So many fun things would never have happened without him. I will remember those times, Tony.
