Tony has been a customer and friend of A Better Choice Auto Insurance since 2007. Even after he stopped driving we enjoyed worshipping at Heart of the Springs Church. We will miss him and his quirky sense of humor. Until we see you again....

Tony was such a blessing to me and our church. I was honored to be his pastor for several years and even up to the end he was bringing people to church with him. We will miss him at Heart of the Springs. Tony loved Jesus and I am confident he is with Him now. See you later, Tony!
