Just want to say that Tony was a joy to me every day I saw him at Encore Memory Day Care Center. Even with the disease, his spirit was alive and his laughter was infectious. I wish I had known him before the disease but I definitely got a glimpse of who he use to be. Cathy, to you and your family, I'm praying the Lord's comfort to you during this time. As you know, since losing Jim too, to this disease, I totally understand. Blessings to you and to your family.

My dear friends Jeannie and Johnny Jenkins. Your boys were our boys. Please accept my deepest condolences at the loss of your oldest son, Tony. It's amazing to read some of the comments to know he kept that infectious smile all of his life. We go back way over 40 years. I remember the fun times we had in England and when my hubby gave Tony his first fishing pole. To God be praised for the wonderful young man who brought so much joy to so many people. My prayers are with you and the family as God strengthen you, you were awesome parents to your children, mine and sooo many others. Your home was the meeting place. Much love. Royce and Ramon Davis O'Fallon, Il

Tony's life continues to make a beautiful difference in this world. His legacy of gentleness, love, and light will radiate through all those he touched and into future generations. As Jesus stated, He will not leave us comfortless: He will come unto us. May the Lord give you peace and buoy you up. As you lean on Him, remember you have friends and family who love you and are just a hug away. Kris Craig

Cathy, you are a shining example of what a true Godly wife is. Your love and respect for Tony is beyond admirable. I know God is looking down and saying, "Well done, my good and faithful servant."

I came to know Tony & Cathy at Encore Memory Daycare. Tony was always a happy man and he sure did know how to dance. I will miss his always hey girl and the loving hugs he always had for me. Cathy & Tony were always laughing and their laugh was so infectious, it kept us all in stitches. Cathy & Brandon, my heart goes out to you both. I know how difficult losing a loved can be but I hope you can find some peace knowing that Tony's fight with this horrible disease is over and he is teaching those angels how to really get down & boogie. Love y'all, Debbie Stewart from Encore

I came to say Tony was a bright spot on a sunny day and I see many testaments here to his loving gentle spirit. He was a great father, a great husband, a great man and I was blessed to have the opportunity to know him and call him family. Tony and Cathy are a beautiful example of what loving marriage and parenthood are. My condolences to Brandon, Cathy, Tony's folks and Kara, for the loss has been heavy. Tony was a man who demonstrated his love to his family and by that has instilled his son with the wisdom of gentle caring. He's now in the arms of the Angels.
