I am tony's sister, and was simply browsing this site out of morbid curiousity, I guess. I just wanted to say thanks for the nice words expressed about my mom and family. Yes, my brother did abandon his family, and took from his sisters the only "father figure" we had. He has also taken away my mothers opportunity to be Nana to his two sons (and another on the way from what I hear. I pity those poor children. Fortunately the rest of us continue to bless her with grandchild after grandchild, and she is the best Nana they could ever ask for!!! It's such a shame that at 40 years old, Tony is still under the twisted control of that man, and I can only pray for him, because he is brainwashed, and knows no better. Thanks.
