Tony was a member at the Jefferson Street Church of Christ and was active in serving and helping anyone he could. Those who surrounded him were blessed by his sense of humor and his caring heart. He was not afraid to laugh at himself or with others. Tony thoroughly enjoyed football and was a devoted fan of the Houston Texans. He was a talented cook, practical joker, computer whiz, wannabe card shark, and an amateur but improving golfer. He loved to spend time outdoors hunting, fishing, boating, and floating the river. Tony also touched many lives through the Palmer Drug Abuse Program and his legacy and light have touched many hearts through the years. He will be greatly missed by his friends and family there who, through it all, loved and cared for him.

The family sincerely thanks the staff at Mercy Hospital in Cedar Rapids for Tonys care during his stay. Memorial donations may be made to the Palmer Drug Abuse Program, P.O. Box 5185, Hobbs, New Mexico 88241.
