A true gentleman, I thank you for your love, support and kindness you showed not only my mother but us all.
As my stepfather I can’t thank you enough for being a positive influence in my upbringing.
I am so grateful for you being a part of our family and bringing us all such happiness and comfort.
Thank you for being a wonderful grandfather to River, Bodhi & Aria.
They will dearly miss you and we all will forever have you at the forefront of my heart and mind every time the Eels play and will be sure to cheer them on for you.
Rest easy.
Oh, Julie. I just read about Tony’s passing. Much love and condolences from both of us. Many wonderful memories you created in your lives together. xx
Tony, thank you simply for being you. You showed kindness, love and acceptance. You were the best father one could wish for. Thank you for loving unconditionally, and for being the best grandfather to Evie. Your presence was calm, and enveloping. There is so much I could say about you that would all be positive.
We will forever miss you.
But I take comfort in knowing you are not in pain, and you can be with Ian again.
Be at peace, Tony. We love you.
Sending our love and thoughts to you and the family Julie. We have fond memories of Tony and always found him to be a thorough gentleman who loved his cricket.
A wonderful man who was a pleasure to work with. I always respected and valued his words of advice and his gentle nature. Condolences to the family at this difficult time
Tony first came into my life as one of Paul Truscott’s school friends — a mate from the early days. When I began going out with Paul, Tony welcomed me warmly. He was always kind, genuine, and a true gentleman.
After many years apart, I reconnected with Tony at his brother-in-law Barry McGinty’s memorial service last year — Barry too being one of Paul’s friends from the past. In a time of loss, it meant so much to see a familiar face and remember those younger days and shared memories.
Tony had a quiet warmth about him. In his life with Julie and their blended family, he created something special — an extended family built on love and acceptance.
My heartfelt condolences to Julie and all the children. Tony will always hold a place in the story of our lives, love Lee Truscott
