Sophie, Debbie, Gary & Family - May you be filled with peace, love & many good memories of Tony. He was fun guy and I remember your many trips to Iowa for the Baade gatherings. I'll also remember him taking me to a Giants game in San Francisco & a Twins game in Minneapolis and watching him play softball in Ukiah. He had a lot of energy and enjoyed life. I pray he is free of pain and sickness and is in a much better place. Your Iowa cousins are thinking of you and send you love.
