    The world has lost one of the good people with the passing of Tony. Any time I was in Kelowna, I always enjoyed spending dinner with Tony at one of the local restaurants. In addition to family, he enjoyed an active social life and I know we are all saddened by the news of his passing.

  • Gail Elsasser says:

    Rest in Peace to our friend Tony. I met Tony through my Mother Herta. Mom died in a car accident coming home from dancing at Club 17 with Tony! They danced with a group of friends as often as the could. Hopefully your dancing in heaven Tony.
    Until we meet again.

  • Heidi Horne says:

    On heaven’s dance floor
    Keep the music of your favourite waltz and fox trot playing
    Keep your dance card full
    And keep dancing the night away
