  1. So sorry to hear about Tony. My prayers are with Carrie, Andy, Gary and family during this difficult time. It just seems like yesterday when all the brothers and sisters would gather at Tommie Sue’s for get together for sharing laughs, stories and great food. Tony always had a smile on his face and he will be missed dearly. Love, Annie Risner & Family
