I've known Tony and Margie since shortly after moving to FL in 1989. I have never met a man as caring, giving and selfless as he was. His family meant everything to him and it showed in how he invested in them. He was this same way with friends and anyone else who had the honor of knowing him. Tony will be greatly missed by us all and my prayers are with Margie and her family.

I am so glad I got to see you again this year. Tony was the kindest and most thoughtful, big hearted, and so much more man that I have ever met. Sending comforting hugs and hope you know that you are surrounded by much love. Sharing your sadness even though there is joy in the homecoming, there is sorrow with your loss. Betty Stamey
