I met Tony over 27 years ago when I first started working at Ultratec. We quickly became friends, playing cards during lunch breaks at work, and giving each other crap for being fans of the "wrong" football team. He would always remember to wish me a happy birthday each year, since his was the day after mine. My sincerest condolences to Tony's family - may he rest in peace.
