Tony enjoyed a long and successful career of forty-four years at Monashee Co-op/ BC Tree Fruits.
He enjoyed trips over the years including his honeymoon in Hawaii and a family trip to Mexico for his 70th birthday but preferred to stay more local and go camping. Highlights were an Alaskan cruise and fishing in Juneau, Alaska.

The cross fence talks with Tony were something I always looked forward to on my trips to Osoyoos. We never failed to catch up for 30 minutes or so. Tony was kind, thoughtful, and just truly a gentleman.
