Tony’s photo from his radio show. How great a keepsake. [After eading the inscription; I always knew he liked you best!] 8) Not everyone took advantage of that offer before he left for the White House.

[Loud Mime]

thank you for the ping, and Foxy, thanks for the wonderful writing! Tears again...

[FOXFANVOX]

Thank you, Bah. I had hoped that it would be televised so all could “be there” and I wouldn’t have to provide my inadequate description.

[Spunky]

Bahbah, thanks for the ping.

FoxFan, thanks so much for the Funeral Report. Tony was really a great person and will be missed by so many.

[FOXFANVOX]

It was blurry at the time for me, too.

[FOXFANVOX]

It is unfortunate I could not convey the music. It was extensive and beautiful.

[FOXFANVOX]

Hey, dmd. I was so drained after writing that post that I took a nap and now I am behind in posting...again!

I am hoping that maybe there is e-mail in heaven. Who knows, eh?

[tiredoflaundry]

(((((((((Foxy)))))))))) Beautiful. just beautiful....

[FOXFANVOX]

I want to see some ID. You have been taken over by an alien being. The Primetimedonna I know would never say such wonderful things to me, even if she felt them. Kidding! It is touching to read such undeserved affection. But, thank you. The SnowFlake community is, itself, a lovely memorial to Tony.

[Bahbah]

Foxy, I felt like I was walking with you, meditating with you, watching the birds fly in formation, sitting there in the service.

What can I say.

[FOXFANVOX]

saveliberty, it was written to share the conclusion of a beautiful life with a beautful community of fans.

Thank you.

((((hugs)))) back atcha

[FOXFANVOX]

I am right there with you my FRiend. Thanks.

[FOXFANVOX]

Thanx Spunky. And I might add, I just saw Charles Krauthammer on Fox. He, too, was there and I passed him going the opposite way in his motorized wheelchair. I reached down and touched his arm and said “God bless you.” It was meant in two ways. Thanks for coming to the funeral and thanks for all you do for Conservatism. I hope he did not take it in other way.

[FOXFANVOX]

Hi TOL. Good of you to comment. Thank you. Tony was a beautiful soul. I remember the awful feeling of emptiness when JFK was suddenly taken from us. Same bright smile and universal appeal. Never thought I would have to go through that once in a lifetime experience again, but here I am.

((((Hugs)))) back.

[FOXFANVOX]

It felt truly religious and transcendental. I think on some level we all were there.

[FOXFANVOX]

I think I have briefly reached the end so I am off for a lite and late snack.

Thank you all for your words most kind. Tony had a way that would always bring people together. Once again, he has done that.

[Miss Marple]

Thank you so much for taking the time to write that report, and thank you for attending the funeral since so many of us were unable to.

You wrote a beautiful and sensitive description. Thank you so much.

[HonestConservative]

Just that picture puts me over the edge.

He gets to be with his Mom. God bless her.

[jackv]

Thank you very much, foxy! God Bless!
