I think many here have been forced to recognize that the example of Tony reminds us that all men have a limited time to live. How we live is one thing but how we approach the end is another. Tony was brave and honest at the same time. Never talked to the man, never had the chance to meet him in person, never thanked him for his contributions but I think he knew. I still have all his emails and have read them once again. He knew that all here were pulling for him, all here were hoping for more time and all here knew that in the end time is the one thing we can not get more of.

Salopian has it right "Consider yourself lucky for knowing Tony. I most certainly do." I do.
