Condolence From: Jim Davis
Condolence: Eldon and family,
Just learned of Tony's passing.
I met him a few years ago when Eldon got in touch with me about building a new ramp for Tony as he still wasn't giving up on getting around a bit and wanted as much independence as he could still have.
My dad was handicapped from WW2, but never gave up on life and making the best of it ...I saw the same in Tony.
He no longer needs the ramp as he walks in heaven. God bless all.

Condolence From: Jim Sandlian
Condolence: To ELDON,RUTH,COLLEEN,HERB. I want to convey to you my deepest sympathy in Tony`s passing. Tony was a dear friend to me and I am not ashamed to say that I loved him. Through life`s many turns and detours we became brothers and our common ground was the Lord Jesus Christ. Tony was a real man, he was my go to guy for advice, strength, encouragement. I was humbled by his cribbage skills. It is an honor to be his friend. I will never forget him. No doubt there is a big void in our hearts right now that we must help each other heal. My oldest son Max said " he`s running around doing cartwheels you name it!" The wheelchair is gone and Tony is free!!! RUN BROTHER RUN!!!

Condolence From: Colleen Mau
Condolence: As Tony's sister, I have spent 62 years of my life around him. I loved him dearly and will miss him immensely but I also know that the last 43 years of his life have been a continual struggle and that he is in a Much Better Place now. His Positive Attitude, even in spite of his injury was amazing and truly an inspiration to all of those around him.
I wrote this poem right before he left us.
TONY'S LAST WISH
As I lie here, my heartbeat slowing and struggling to take my last
breath--
I find comfort in knowing, that God will be with me in my moment of
death.
My days on Earth are almost over and I'm ready to go "Home."
I don't have the Strength to fight anymore and I don't want to be Alone.
The Road has been Long and Difficult but I have managed to Survive,
And it has been my Faith and Trust in God, that has kept me Alive.
God has always watched over me and He has never left my side.
Now, it's time for Him to take me "Home" and Heaven's Gates have
been opened wide.
I am looking forward to My Journey to His Kingdom Above--
Where I will have Eternal Peace and know Everlasting Love.
Colleen K. Mau
Rest in Peace my Dearest Brother

Condolence From: Dennis Mau
Condolence: I was Tony's brother-in-law and I always enjoyed going to visit him. He was amazingly positive and always in a good mood despite his handicap. He would always tell me an interesting story about some underhanded government operation he read about on YouTube or show me his latest knife purchase of which he had many.He was proud that he lived on his own and tended to all his own business by himself. I will miss him alot.

Condolence: My condolences to the Voss family. Being a good friend of Herb's and spending a lot of time at the Voss' I got to know Tony pretty well. He was a good man who through an unfortunate incident at a young age had a challenging life, but always persevered. I always enjoyed being around Tony, and I'm betting he's up there in heaven now running laps and free of the entrapments he endured. God bless.
