Tony was a wonderful support for all of us in Friends of Malaysia. I wish we could have "cloned" him. He was immensely helpful and available to all of us. We all miss him.

Tony will be missed greatly by the Returned Peace Corps community and especially by the Friends of Malaysia.

Tony was always on the leading edge of technology and many of us were hard pressed to keep up with his keen mind and quick intellect. We as board members of Friends of Malaysia owe him a big debt of gratitude.

As a friend, Tony was willing to give of his time and talent to help us understand many technical things like SKYPE and was helpful and reassuring about answering any questions we had.
He also provided helpful hints and suggestions about our trip to Malaysia in 2006.

We will miss him but he will always have a place in our hearts.

Peace Corps Volunteers continue to serve long after their in country term. Tony was a good friend and made the Friends of Malaysia.org web site a continuing tribute to the work he started in Malaysia. He was dedicated, skillful and had a vision for a better world. He was my friend, colleague and fellow volunteer. He will be missed by us all.
