This was such sad news. What people are saying on here and FB should help those who were not fortunate enough to know him to appreciate who he was.

He was the first MAZOC crew that I met when I went to my first meet. When I parked at the meet, the only other Z in the lot was this Smurf blue 370Z that was decked out with great show parts. We talked about his car for a few minutes and then he walked over to mine and proceeded to show interest in my "mostly stock" 370Z. He enjoyed talking about cars and had a way of making you like your car all over again. Great guy and my thoughts and prayers go out to his Aunt, who I know he cared a lot about. Never got to meet her, but he talked about her a lot.

Again he had a great heart and will be missed by a lot of people!

RIP Tony...

Death is not only a time of loss and pain but an opportunity to celebrate a life. I see the posts here and on FB as an outpouring of celebration, honoring Tony. And it's a testament to Tony that his death could also bring joy to so many, as they remember and relish the memories of his life.

Love all the stories guys. It feels like I knew him ... even though I only conversed with him a few times here on the forum

I'm going to miss you Tony! We definitely had a great ride in my car at Barber though!

I just heard

Tony was awesome. He was one of the reasons I was on this forum for so long, one of the reasons I was OG, one of the reasons I was in maZoc.

I drove his car to Z Nationals years back, it's one of the best road trips I've ever been on. Really really gonna miss that man.

Really sad to hear, RIP.

I remember his blue smurf and liked seeing what all he was doing to it next. So much inspiration to a lot of us that just got into the 370Z...

For those who might have missed it on Facebook;
ZDayZ changed their t-shirt for this year.
A small but nice tribute to Tony.

I've been in contact with Tony's aunt, Susan the last few days. There won't be a memorial service in the typical sense, because Susan and I both thought that just wasn't his style. He'd want his friends and family to laugh and have a great time together at a car meet because that's what he loved himself.

So, after ZdayZ is wrapped up, we (MAZOC) are planning to have a memorial car meetup in his name in the coming weeks. We're trying to have it on a weekend where the weather is nice in the Fairfax, VA area. We'd love as many people as possible to come out, share stories of our good times with each other and possibly head to the Springfield, VA area to a local hole in the wall where Tony's aunt Susan has a friend who has graciously offered to provide food for all in attendance (drinks are on you).

Please feel free to contact me directly with any questions. We're still working out a date so that we can get as many people together as possible to remember our good friend Tony. Probably looking at the weekend of May 30th right now.

Thanks everyone.

A big thank you to Jay for reaching out to Susan and getting the ball rolling on this. I think we'll really be able to honor Tony in a way that he would have loved to see.

For those of you going to ZDayZ, I will be bringing a little something special with me for us to take part in which I think Susan will really appreciate. Again, thanks to Jay with helping brainstorm this little idea...
