My profound condolances to you FFV, as a friend of Tony’s I can imagine how you are grieving right now.

May you celebrate Tony’s life - people like him don’t come along very often.

God bless.

Thank you for your comfort, Fuddy. I am on and off, mostly off, as we prepare to go to West Virginia for the funeral of my aunt. Two deaths in one week, especially when both seem like family, is more than my heart can bear. I am drawing great comfort from reading the comments of fellow Snowflakes, and FReepers and in fact from all who are saddened by Tony's passing. However, the comments are growing faster than I can keep up with.

I first learned of it from Bahbah’s Post and then found that Saveliberty had also e-mailed me. That said, I don't seem to have grasped the reality as every time Fox announces Tony's death, I am momentarily shocked with disbelief. Then the sad reality sets it. It is so.

Hopefully, when we return from WVA I'll be able to comment at length. For now I draw strength from the comments of so many of Tony's fans. He was so proud of being a FReeper and so enjoyed FReeping, that I know he would be pleased at the outpouring of love, if not the sadness. And there is much sadness.
