Tony was, above all else, a teacher. If you asked him the time, he'd tell you how a watch worked. He was passionate about passing on his knowledge, and I learned so much from him while working at Lumley Insurance. He also loved to tell stories from his travels and was a very entertaining person to have lunch or dinner with. Thanks for all the support you gave me, Tony, and for believing in my potential.
