Tony was a bigger man in every way –

He was physically bigger

His smile glowed brighter

He was warmer and more forgiving

He laugh was heartier

His heart reached out to more people

He worked harder

He dreamed bigger

His Segway was larger than mine.

A person like Tony doesn’t appear on earth very often and I’m blessed for having known him. Most people live a full, long life without achieving a small portion of what Tony managed to do in such a short period of time. Tony was a big man and I know we all miss him a big way. I know I do.

Goodbye we love you and miss you.

I only meet with Tony a couple of times over the past two years. It was truly a pleasure to have worked with someone who really knew how to do it right. You shall stay with me my entire life, Tony. A true giant among men.
