Such a senseless loss for your family Wanda. I'm so sorry. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. No mother should ever have to bury her child or suffer the heart-ache that you are going through. May you find peace and comfort in all who love you. May the memory of Tony always be a blessing to you.

Sue Smalley.

Tony was a very caring man, always smiling. Every time we had a conversation, we were eye to eye wanting what's best for our families and the street we live on. Tony will be missed.

God bless,

Thomas and Ruth Burke
