What sad news. It really is a heartbreak, with all the pride and enjoyment he seemed to have from this site and his projects. He will be terribly missed.
He was a great e-friend.
My prayers are with him and his family.

In addition to all the condolences that follow, I wish to add a simple thank you to Tony and family.. from the BITOG family.
Tony was a great man.
He will be in a better place.
So sad for his family and loved ones, and I pray all earthly things are taken care of for his close ones.

Deep sigh.
Tony and his family are as good as gold.
I've had a number of fishing trips with Tony (about the only time I did worth a darn catching fish was with Tony). Tony and I would go fishing, then we would come in and Helen (Tony's wife) would fix us a darn good supper, then we would drink coffee and talk about whatever comes to mind.
One time Helen even cleaned the fish we caught and I took them home and me and my wife ate on 'em for a long time to come.
Tony even showed me how to properly punch a hole in my oil pan and start a self tapping hollow bolt. I punched a hole in my pan on my Dodge Ram two days ago and I wasn't worried about it at all because Tony showed me how to do it two summers ago.
I had a lot of good times going to Tony & Helen's house just to visit. Gosh, they are GREAT people.

A moment of silence for Tony. He was the first person I talked to when I joined this site. Very nice guy. He will be missed.
Godamn cancer.You will be missed sir.
Amen. No doubt, it's shocking news, but he's in a much better place, no longer limited by time and space. May the Good Lord bless his family.
This was not the news I wanted to hear when I came home from church this morning. I am sad that such a fine man is gone and I am sad for Helen and family. But I thank G O D for the time we all had a chance to know him. Our prayers are with Helen and kids at this time.
to a great man.
I'm so sorry to hear that. Condolences to & prayers for his family.
I wish I could have gone fishing with Vetteman; that's the one thing we did have in common. Didn't know him personally, but he was the best owner/moderator of a message board I've ever seen. I'll keep he and his family in my prayers. I'm sure he'll be casting a line up in the sky. G O D bless ya Tony.
Go with G o d...

He was a great man and he will be truly missed! I hope he's driving around in a nice 59 Corvette up there in Heaven!
