Tony was there at both my parents funerals for which I am very thankful. We were sad as a family not to be able to support them for Diane's funeral, due to Covid restrictions. We were greatly enriched by knowing both Tony and Diane and also their children Eleanor and Richard. Tony and Diane made the most of the great outdoors and there is so much I did not know and I have been pleased to be able to visit the gallery site. I remember Tony asking me after my mum's funeral, had I come down from my ethereal plane yet? I think I just smiled. It was good he saw the other reality. My late mother knew the importance of sharing the gospel of grace and had encouraged both myself and the Pastor to share at her funeral as of utmost importance - the pastor likened it to going to the bar to get a free drink that someone else had paid for fully! His Kingdom certainly isn't of this world! I'll drink to that, cheers, in fond memory Tony! May the Love of Christ Comfort and strengthen the whole of his family and his friends. I speak overflow of grace and peace at his funeral in manifold witness....gusto songs in expectance....with some natural honouring of Tony's gifted sense of humour. Amen
