"Seeing pictures of us as young bucks just reminds me of our past. Going through life at that awkward time and experiencing all life had to offer us. Those years will always be special to me and I am also grateful for our friendship. Youth is a hard thing to navigate but it sure helps to have close friends to share it with. Tony will be missed and I hope his family can find peace knowing he was a one of a kind!"
In loving memory of
