May you rest n peace dear Tony. You were a wonderful gentleman. You will be missed.
We are so sorry to hear of Tony,s passing. We have so many good memories of driving to Seattle to visit with the Laigo family. Our deepest sympathy goes out to the his family.
” can’t you point this boat any higher” Thank you.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathies. My heart goes out to the family. Death is something we will never get use to. In fact, God’s Word refers to death as an enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:26) Very soon our loving Heavenly Father, Jehovah God, will remove death once and for all and give us the opportunity to see our loved ones again here on the earth.
My friend you lived a full life. May you follow the path in peace.
I am sorry to the family for your loss. I worked with Tony
and what I will remember is that he always had a smile on his face. He will be missed.
Susan, my dear friend and neighbor, I can only imagine your sorrow. I will miss meeting with Tony at the mailbox and having our little chats. Tony was always the most gracious of neighbors, I couldn’t ask for better than the two of you.
Now Tony’s struggle with his health has come to an end. May he be peacefully at rest and may you find some comfort knowing this. My thoughts are with you and Matthew.
It is too long between visits but now we know it will be longer before we see Tony again. He loves his family and that extends to the greater family of community. He leaves us so much richer for having touched our lives. The physical is beyond us but the spirit is part of us forever. Sempre~
So positive and comfortable to be around … such a heartfelt presence. You felt better just to have known him! A legacy and a benchmark in so many ways.
Sue, we are sorry for your deep loss and, yet, so happy you were able to share your life with Tony.
Matthew, your dad was a good man … a bright spot in many lives.
Susan, you have been in my thoughts since I learned of Tony’s passing. I am so glad Tony, Steve and I were all able to reconnect after so many years and that I met you. Take care.
Tony you will be missed by all who knew you. Your kindness, compassion and love of family knew no bounds. I have fond memories of hiking and camping with troop 360 and the wonderful way you helped so many boys.
Dear framily, I am sorry for your loss. May each of you find comfort in knowing that God is “near to those that are broken at heart ;and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.” (Psalms 34;18)
Susan, we just learned of Tony’s passing. We have fond memories of meeting him — the true love that you deserved so much. You built a life together full of generosity and compassion. He enhanced your own beautiful strengths, and even in passing he leaves you stronger than ever. Love to you.
Susan, David, Brant, and Matthew,
I recently heard of Tony’s passing and am thinking of you all often. I am so very sorry for your loss. This first holiday season must be tough. I wish you peace and joy.
