“W” is a great president, but Tony made him greater!

That is true, and he would never take credit for it.

There was a nice initial layout in the paper at the link I gave above. I live a couple hours away now, but I still have family in the vicinity. If one of the small community papers puts anything out this week, I’ll ask that they let me know. Might have to scan and copy it, but it would be a fitting tribute.

A while back, there was a nice article on Tony at http://enquirer.com either when he took the press secty’s job or when he left it. I’ll see if I can find that.

Just looking at the names posting on this thread brings back so many happy memories, so many.

He did beat cancer, even in his death from it.

Tragedy hits you twice.

It takes you physically, but it can only take your heart and spirit if you let it. Tony knew this. Cancer could only have his body, he would never permit it to take his life.

God is with his family.

Watching Griff on Fox with Greta. Our thoughts and prayers for you loss, Griff. We know that YOU know you were privileged to know him.

We should all take what we learned from Tony and spread it, well like Snowflakes.

His genuine positive demeanor not only kept things easy, but completely disarmed his opponents.

Today, he is in heaven with his Mom.

They actually wanted him, per Andy Card, but the timing was off for Tony.

That was a crappy article :

“He really used to cheese me with some of the stuff he’d say on Fox News Sunday and when he became Bush’s mouthpiece,” Spaulding said. “But he stayed with it until the end and I’m sure he believed it. He spoke with conviction.”

You would think his hometown paper would do a better more respectful job---

Nah, never mind (what was I expecting?)

I have great respect for Princeton. We (Massillon Washington HS) always had a lot of problems with you guys in the Championships in football playoffs :)

Disagree.

The man talking was a childhood friend of Tony’s. They played in a band together.

A friend is allowed to say, “He really used to cheese me...” and have it put in the context of close childhood friends.

I got from the quote that it 'cheesed' him when he became "Bush's mouthpiece". It looked to be a quote from a DU poster. Sorry, they could have found someone in the whole of Cincy that was a true friend of Tony's that could have respected him more, especially on his passing.

I'll apologize, I am a bit hypersensative right now....but I feel Tony deserved better.
