Nov 3, 2024My condolences to Tony’s family and friends. I have many happy memories of my time spent working as a teenager at “Top of the Hill” and have very vivid memories of the multitude of social gatherings Tony hosted after work. He created a very cohesive unit of young people and was certainly the centre of the group. I am sure he carried that through his life and is one reason he will be missed by so many.

Nov 2, 2024My cousin and my closest friend, what can be said about such a great loss, not only to me, but to his family, his golf course, the Orillia community and the legions of Dallas Cowboy fans. Tony’s and my relationship goes way back to when we were teens. When in school in Toronto, Tony lived with me while attending chef’s school at George Brown College. At that point we became fast friends, more than just relatives. We lived together, worked together, travelled together, and spoke together often. I will miss the almost daily phone calls from Tony on his way home from the restaurant after a very long day, to talk and help keep him focused and awake on the way home. I knew why he called and both of us enjoyed the conversations. We shared a love of golf, Florida and cooking. Whenever he and Leesa got together with Robyn and me, it was golf, talk, food and fun. I will miss his aggressive card play and his winning card dances, his laugh and his love for family and friends. Goodbye Tony. Michael and Robyn Hill
