Please help Tony “Friend to all”

Hi, my name is Cathy, I am reaching out asking for help for my dear friend Tony.

I would like to start by telling you about how special Tony is. Tony is one of the nicest funniest people you’ll ever meet. He will make you smile and laugh just being himself. I have had the pleasure of knowing Tony for over 30 years and he has always been consistent in treating every person, animal, and plant that he comes across with respect and kindness. Tony will only call you by your full name. My friends call me Cat, Tony calls me Catherine. If Tony learns your middle name, he will use both. Tony has one of the most distinctive voices you will ever hear, but will act surprised when you recognize it on the phone. His laugh is infectious and if you hear it, you cannot stop laughing yourself. Tony is a very special person who is always been there for everyone. He will hold the door for you, give you his seat and always ask about your family. He is a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend.

Three years ago Tony was diagnosed with Ependymoma (cancerous tumors) which started in his spine. He has been fighting hard with multiple surgeries and radiation. Recently, Tony and his husband David got devastating news that the tumors have spread to his head. Surgery and radiation are no longer an option and he will be starting chemo to try to slow the growth. We are hoping to raise enough money to help with the upcoming medical bills, and the financial burden that comes with fighting this horrible disease. Any and all donation will be greatly appreciated and if you can’t give, please hold the door for someone in Tonys honor. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
