Very sorry to read this. I knew Tony, both professionally & socially while I was with CV & he was a great character who will be sorely missed. A true Gentleman with a capital G. Those of you who have not read his books, especially 'Dancing in the Skys', should make the effort.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the service but my thought will be there.
RIP Tony, you enriched many lives, mine included.
