Dear Eleanor, Phoebe and Lucie,

You are in my thoughts and I want to express my sincere condolences to you for losing Tony.

Tony was a very special colleague with a great sense of humour, it was a pleasure to work with him.  I admired his enthusiasm, knowledge, fast thinking, courage and human approach.   

I also think of him as a friend who had always time to ask how I am and was interested in hearing about the progress of my craft projects.   

I have had a candle burning for him ever since I heard of his illness and it still is.

When I think of him I can hear his big laughter and see his smiling face, he must be well now and is in a good place.

I wish you courage and strength to go through your sorrow.

Pirjo
