Tonya, Robin and Family. I am Sadden to hear of your Loss. Anthony (Tony) was a Loving and very supportive person. He visited Mom while she was in the hospital a few years ago and she was so glad to see him. My only wish is that we had visited each other later as we had planned. But as it is said, our Plans are not God’s Plans. Continue to Love each other. Love Aunt EarLine, Paula, and Family
