Tony loved travelling and his fellow snowbird and loving companion Marjorie Jackson shared his wanderlust and passion for golf. He leaves behind his most caring friends Doug, Stella and Ralph who gave their devotion to a friend and veteran; their devoted support in hours of need. Our thanks go to his friends, in particular Marge and Doug, for their unselfish and continuous loving attention. Our thanks also go to the staff of Chilliwack Hospital and the Cascades Hospice for their excellant care.
