Although my memories of my cousin, Rocky, are few they are sweet. There was that one magical summer I stayed with my cousins, aunt and uncle riding horses, doing chores, piling hay bales in the barn, bareback in the swimming hole, riding in local shows, lots of laughter and good times. Our paths went in different directions, Rocky, but I will always think of you fondly with love.
I met with Tony privately because I wanted to date his ex wife who had his youngest 3 children. I’m sure most ex husbands wouldn’t be that nice. Not Tony. He said that he was glad that I was becoming involved with his children. He was so full of love, wanting the best for his children. Over the years, he gave me a lot of great advice. We had so much in common, we could talk for a long time. Tony, I’ll never let you down.
I met Tony when he came to work on my apartment. Over the years he offered me a ride to or from work a few times. I got to know him a little bit and he will be missed by me.
Thank you for showing your love to the littles and me even through your passing. The littles and the girls are taking it very hard, but I believe I have followed your instructions to the letter. I did all of it with love. Remembering fondly all of the great times we shared together. The mustangs, the Chevelle, the drifting at the Rochester General parking garage, and the fireworks. Talking late into the night about nothing and everything. You’re so loved.
You will be missed Tony
Sending condolences and love to all his family!:
