Tony will be greatly missed but we are happy for the many happy memories we have and are so thankful to have met him and his family close to 30 years ago. He loved God and loved his family...that was apparent to anyone who met him. So glad we got to spend time with him again over the last 18 months since we moved back to AR and will cherish those memories. God bring comfort and peace to those he leaves behind. Love you guys.
