I miss my dad so much I wish you was still here we will always love you I cry every time I come to see your grave I love you dad

Through teary eyes memories flood me as I see your face. Too soon you have been taken from us - without a doubt this is true. We cannot question God's plan - but He needed a dang good man by His side - and He chose the best. One with a smile so bright, there will never be a dark time for me, Cuzz, when I think of you and remember it. There are no words to describe the pain and the hole left by your "Going Home" - I am comforted that you made it through those Heavenly Gates with ease - and will beam that smile down to us all as bright as the sun. So we will wrap the sun's warmth around our hearts, and that is how we will feel your presence. Keep smiling Cuzz ... keep smiling. 

You will be missed and loved forevermore.

Tony was simply wonderful. His smile and loving personality could light up a room. Thanks for sharing him. High school wouldn't have been the same without him.

Your entire family is in my prayers!  May God give you strength and peace to carry on after such a difficult lose.

Paulette, I am so sorry to hear about Tony.  I was shocked.  Dad called me today at work and told me.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time in your life.

Laura and Family,My brother Eddie Sims and I are sorry to hear about Tony passing away you'll are in our thoughts and Prayers.

I am shocked to hear about Tony. It just breaks my heart. I found out this morning when mom called me crying.  She had seen his obituary in the Rome News Tribune. You have my deepest sympathy. I knew Tony and grew up with him.  He did have a great smile. Me and Tony both loved mustangs. I loved Tony, and I love yall.  If you need anything, please contact me if only to just talk.  You are in my prayers. God Bless.

I'm so saddened to hear of the loss of Tony.  I knew him since Jr High and have recently caught up with him again.  He was my running around buddy in high school. Whenever anything was bothering you, he would pester you until he made you smile.  He was very proud of his two boys and crazy in love with his wife.  My prayers go out to all of his family.  I pray that God eases your pain in this very difficult time.

I was so shocked to hear what happened. I want you to know that your family is in my prayers.  I am so blessed to have gotten to know you guys through your awesome son, John Paul. I pray for the Lord to give you the strength you need, and for the boys to have God's love surrounding them.

I always considered you my uncle even though you always messed with me and it made me mad but now looking back it really actually makes me laugh. Just about a month ago I was asking about you and never got a chance to ask Dusty how you and Dee and the boys were and if you were coming to Rome anytime soon. Although it seems like yesterday you were asking me if I had everything for the baby and now he's 3 yrs. old. I hate that my boys never got to meet you and your family because I am positive they would have loved you and your boys as much as we all did. I know you will be deeply missed. My heart goes out to Austin, John Paul and Dee. We all love and miss you all in Rome. God Bless.
Love, Ashlea, Hayden and Noah Sprayberry

His smile never changed - just the way I remember him from school.  He picked us up for school each morning and was such a joy to be around.  We loved him and I pray that you lean on Christ to get you through this loss.

We wanted you to know how sorry we were to hear about Tony's passing.  We can't imagine how difficult this must be for you and pray that you will feel the Lord wrapping His loving arms of comfort around you at this time.   Dr. Jon Rogers, Dr. Michael Rogers and staff

We knew you only slightly, as your mother and step-dad's next door neighbors for 16 years, but we do know that you were a devoted son and, when the time came, a wonderful father to your two little boys.  May you continue to watch over them in Heaven, Tony.
