2 Condolences
Tony, Felica, Brianna, Cameron and Damon: I’m so very sorry to hear of Toby’s death. I really liked Toby. He was very friendly to me on my visits home. We chatted a couple of times on Facebook, which I remember fondly. And even though I was only around him a few times, I’ll miss him.
Sincerely,
Uncle Brad
