Jason CarveryTony,
As I remember fondly of our many encounters as friends, the one thing that stand out the most is your uncanny ability to make people feel happy when they were in your presence.
The many conversations, Basketball battles, Golf wars, Ha! Among others that I could list for days. Keep watch over us and your family.
Continue to swing those HR’s in Heaven my man! Until we meet again, it has been a privilege knowing you and more importantly, being your friend.
