As this year comes to a close, I reflect on how difficult it has been. One of my worst years ever!! I pray you are shining with the stars, hanging out with old friends, and making new ones.

Tony has always inspired many. My life's trials and tribulations did not go without his guidance, confidence, and support. I was always impressed how he was able to talk to everyone, remember their names, and know something special about them. When I first started working at Capt. Frank's, he instilled work ethic and loyalty to the company. He had to be at work n...
Forever in my heart, constantly on my mind.
