My Friend,

It is hard to live with a heart torn by two emotions; joy that you brought when you would visit, and the grief that you are gone now. You left a legacy behind, but I still wish that you were here. Today, I may live within your shadow, but you remain a guiding light to me. You will live on Tony, you will live on...



Blessed be,

Robb

Here I sit again...I come back again and again. Everytime I find myself here, I run into the same problem. How do you say good-bye to a friend. Yet I have it easier I believe than others. Every day I see our children and know that you live on. The boy is a carbon copy in miniture form. They both have your much of your personality. Yes you live on in them as wellas in our hearts. Friends such as you are a rarity. You gave of yourself almost to a fault. Your sense of humor. Your animal noises. All these things remembered can make me smile, even as the tears are welling up in my eyes and rolling down my cheeks. My final wish for you my friend is that you go in peace. You will be missed greatly. But your spirit and memory has set the stage for our healing.

With All My Heart

Tina

Dear Ones,

May the precious memories of Tony be a comfort to you now,and may it help you to know that many thoughts are with you in your sorrow. My deepest heartfelt sympathy goes out to you all.



It has been many a year since I have seen Tony at our Grandmother & Grandfather Perry's 50th Wedding Anniversary in Roosevelt Utah. I remember Tony as an attractive shy young man with a bright smile and a twinkle in his eyes.

I hope that one of my favorite poems will offer comfort to all Family & Friends.

When I come to the end of the road

And the sun has set for me

I want no rites in a gloom filled

room

Why cry for a soul set free?



Miss me a little, but not too long

And not with your head bowed low

Remember the love that we once

shared

Miss me, but let me go.



For this is a journey that we all

must take and each must go alone

It's all a part of the Master's

plan

A step on the road to home.



When you are lonely and sick of

heart

Go to the friends we know

And bury your sorrows

In doing good deeds.

Miss me, but let me go.

~Author Unknown~



May God bless you and guide you on your new great adventure Tony.



With love from your cousin,



Janene
