Deeply saddened by your loss. Fond memories of good times together, that will be with us forever. There was music wherever Tony went. a great work mate, friend and cheeky Bridal car driver.
Tony was a friend for over 60 years, and despite his trials and tribulations, he was always optimistic and cheerful.
