=======

My first recollection of you Tony was when I was only in grade school in Kalispell, Montana. I was uptown with my family and we were looking at some caged animals on Main Street. The crowd was pushy and because I was so short, I couldn't see the animals. You were standing not far from me, you were probably in the 7th or 8th grade, and you acknowledged me and asked if I wanted to see the animals. I shook my head that I did, so you gently pushed through the crowd and made a way for me clear to the front and stood there beside me, like a kindly guard to insure that no one would push me aside. I thought you seemed like a guardian angel. Years later, I recognized you in the community when my parents moved to Kila, Montana. My name is Sharon Anderson and I was a neighbor who lived across the road from the Post Office. I have missed you and thought of you for many, many years. I wish I could wish you a happy birthday but maybe you know this by heart. Sharon
