I am extremely saddened to hear of Tony's passing. I was with him 24/7 for so many years at NCSU. He was among the first to welcome me into his, our fraternity, and i learned so much from him about friendship & brotherhood. I really missed catching up and spending time with him after school as life led us in different directions as it sometimes does. Tony will be greatly missed, his laugh, his unique sense of humor and perspective, his mischief, and his valued advice among many other things. My condolences to his family and thank you for sharing Tony with us! He really enriched our lives!
