I am so sorry for your loss of such a great man. I remember meeting Tony when he had to put his dad, Mr. Tom, in the nursing home. He would usually stop by my office during his visits to see if his dad needed anything. We had many conversations about his farming operation and family. He always had a smile on his face and a minute or two to stop and talk. I know he will be missed. May God bless your family and give you peace and comfort.
We are so sorry for your loss. Please accept our deepest sympathy. May God provide you the strength you need to cope with this difficult situation. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
Dear Sarah & Family
We have fond memories of Tony and all the fun times in school at Rural Special and past class reunions, thinking of you at this most difficult time

Sorry for your loss. We will miss him.
Praying for all the family. I remember Tony always giving me a hard time for being a "city boy"! He was always fun to be around & taught me how to clean a chicken house! I thank God for getting to know him - Blessings!
Dear Sarah and Boys, Keith and I are so saddened and shocked to hear that Tony has passed. He and Keith had many good times and stories of the days working at the grocery store together. He even thanked people on the birth of our son Robert. People could not tell he and Keith apart so Tony just thanked everyone and then told Keith about it later. He would laugh about that every time we met up.
We have certainly lost a good friend and will pray for you during this time of sorrow. Everyone that knew Tony loved him. Heaven has certainly received a wonderful person.
