Im sorry i was unaware tony passed at the time. As many have written tony was a very very good man. I didnt say he didnt have flaws but he was so good. There was very few he didnt like. He adored april and loved her completely. He loved his life, his students, he loved my son. Driving by hubbel studio my heart shatters each time. It was never fair that he was taken to soon❤
