Dear Eleanor, Phoebe and Lucie,

I send you my heartfelt condolences and sympathy on the loss of Tony.

I got to know Tony as Finance Director, who wanted to know things very well and I had to face one or the other discussion. In his function this was exactly right, but it made him seem a little unapproachable to me. At some point, however, I got to know him personally a little better and I was pleasantly surprised by the Tony I then saw. He was a great person, fair, an interesting person to talk to, he was also up for a little teasing and countered well. It is such a pity that he is no longer with us. He left way too soon. I will always remember him as the amazing person he was and always will be.

I wish you a lot of strength in this difficult time.
