    Sadly, I am just learning of Tony's passing. He took such great care with my cars for over 20 years. He was kind, well-spoken, always fair and considerate. I always knew I could rely on Tony for the best services. Wishing blessings and continued strength to Tony's family. May your memories continue to provide comfort and strength.

    My memory of Tony lasts over 40 years. He was my boss and like a father to me. He was the kindest and loving man to me. Just spoke to him on the phone 2 weeks ago. I will cherish that conversation. Prayers to Mary and the family.
