    It is with sadness that Tony has left us so soon. We have known Tony since 2000 when he became a client through Accounts Online. He always loved it when we would call round to assist as he said he and computers did not mix. He was so funny. Then he contacted me to say he had found a place in Pahiatua and was thinking of moving as Mana was getting too much for him. He said he needed to be on the flat. I said that is neat because I live in Woodville. He loved coming and having a cuppa tea at our Cafe 88 in Woodville. Then when he found out we had Wood 'n Weave next to the Salvation Army, he just loved coming there. He also bought his family and sister to visit when she was over from Australia. You are sorely missed. Bless you and your family at this sad time. Kindest Regards Leigh-Ann xxoo

    Hi, Grant Bartlett here. I loved my mate Tony, but we kind of lost contact when he moved to Paihiatua! Even when he thought it would be amusing to pour his beer over me at the Sandbar! Condolences to family, much love

    Tony and I were friends in Mana. He supported me through my separation. He gave my son and his friend's rides on his Harley. We remained friends when we both left the area. Rest in peace dear friend.

    Dear Tony, I am struggling with your passing. I will miss your cheerful waves as you pass by in your car. I would think to myself, there he goes off to get coffee or take aways for tea 😆. I will miss seeing you sitting in your lounge chair with the TV blaring, once again, another hearty wave. Our chats we had usually consisted of talking about family, the cost of living, healthcare and your Harley Davidson bike. I never knew when you would wander over the road to see how i was doing. You were a lovely neighbour, always happy to help in anyway. God bless you Tony. I hope you are hooning around free on your Harley. To Tony's family, my condolences to you all. Lianne May.
