I was sad to hear about Tony's passing and I would like to express my sympathy for your loss.  He was a gentle soul and a fun guy.  I have fond memories of Anthony growing up in Montrose and going to school with him.  Peace my friend.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Rest in peace, Tony.  Every time I saw you, you'd remind of when me and John Warner would argue at the Silver Bowl.  Always made me laugh.  I'm going to miss you, buddy.

Dear Charlotte and Frank:

This morning, Wednesday, February 4,2015 at 11:00am family and friends gather to remember and honor Tony's life.  May the love of all around you bring you comfort.

Even though we are not with you today, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.  We extend our most heartfelt sympathy.  You will also be in our thoughts and prayers in the coming days. 

We ask the Lord to hold you in the comfort of His love.

Love,
Cordy and Ted

Tony has been a close dear friend to our family for many years.  He was there on the first day of our daughter's life and has watched her become an adult.  Tony was there for many, many great times, whether in the ceiling on the crazy, big shows or hanging with all of us for some hamburgers, etc. We will miss him very much and saddened but have been enriched with his friendship over the years.

I was working with you just the other day it seems, a couple of weeks ago at m.g.m. I was going to request a quick trip down memory lane when we did the grateful dead and it slipped my mind on the daily grind of things..it was when I introduced carl to carlos Santana for a photo opportunity, and afterwards Santana said to me...I`m so sorry but I must have forgotten your name...and I said," I don`t know how...we`ve never met"..my friend really likes you and wanted to meet you, so I just introduced him to you...speaking of which I listened to Abraxas, a dozen times in one night...hi, I`m bob...and he just stood there...then the wind started to blow and we climbed scaffolding to tie the rain flaps down.......I`m gonna miss you...see you at the next campfire

I remember from the first day we met the kindness and humility Tony gave to me.  Always loved a good laugh, good food and good music from Tony.  I will be missing you for the rest of my life.  Love and Respect.

 Tony, my sincerest thoughts and prayers are with your mom and dad, your fiance, family, and friends. You had a heart of gold,  I'll never forget you.

Some of my best memories of Vegas are courtesy of Tony. Such clever wit, simple fun, intelligent humor, not-so intelligent humor...just lots of laughs to be around!  I did my first rock climbing with you, and you literally caught me when I fell once. Hope you kept the snake that nearly bit you.  Man you will be missed.  Here's to sidewinder!  I love you bro!

I'm very sorry to hear of Tony's passing. He welcomed me into his Boston Red Sox Meetup Group in Las Vegas in 2009. Through him, I was able to meet many more Red Sox fans stuck here in The Desert.  :-)   R.I.P., Bro!

Such a great guy!  So sorry to hear, our hearts go out to  your family, prayers for Tony may he rest peacefully!!   Blay Family

Will be praying for you and your family!  Be sure to greet my children who have gone before you, Benedict, Kolbe, and John.  Peace!

Oh Tony, I remember our good times at Red Rock finding desert turtle, so simple but so wonderful!!!  Thank you for sharing your presious time.  I am lucky I got to spend time with you, you will always be in my heart. 
We will meet again, 
Love Eva

Frank and Charlotte, 
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. We had so much fun touring with the baseball families, winter and summer, during high school. I had so much respect for Tony and the kindness that he showed to my parents. Such great memories like; covering Madonna's 'Like a Virgin' with him, Richard and Robert in that Karaoke booth in Salt Lake City.  Good times and great memories. Peace and God Bless.

I'm going to really miss you Tony. You're a great guy. Much respect as a coworker, rigger and most of all my friend. RIP buddy.

Charlotte & Frank, Wish we could be with you at this time. With deepest sympathy in the loss of Anthony, from all of us. Our love-

I love you Tony!  I miss you so much.  You are and always be one of the cool funniest guys I have ever met.  You are pure class boss!

Tony will be greatly missed for his humor and his good hearted demeanor. R.I.P. my friend.My deepest condolences to those he left behind.

Gonna miss you Tony... you were one of a kind... I know you'll be out there somewhere watching your Sox, and making everyone around you laugh, just like you've always done. Til we meet again my friend.

Will always remember Tony for his kind heart and great sense of humor.  He always knew how to bring a smile to someones face.  Rest in peace old friend....

Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Frank, my heart goes out to you during this difficult time. Anthony was an amazing guy who will be deeply missed. Love you dearly! Janet

We started our careers the same week at the Thomas and Mack nearly 27 years ago. We shared many laughs, brutal gigs, and an occasional cocktail along the way. You were truly one of my oldest road brothers and dear friend. I will truly miss you.

You touched many lives over the years  making experiences positive and memorable. You were a  giving person to those friends in need. I'll miss you brother. Love and Respect. Mark
