I will always remember Tony as a big-hearted and generous friend and as a meticulous historical researcher and prolific writer; with a verve for life, travel and clothing, a great love for his wife Carlina, and an often wacky sense of humor. It is hard to imagine him not being around anymore, and my sincerest sympathies are with Carlina and all who were close to him.

My Professor of Pedagogy, friend, and my Pudding! This is heartbreaking news! He was simply hands down the best professor in the entire African America Studies at the University of South Carolina! He would use rap lyrics and jokes as a way of pulling us into his lesson plan! These classes were life changing! He told me I needed to know my “own” roots....I’d ended up researching and writing about my family’s historical journey because of him! I’ve been blessed by him and his wonderful wife! There are no words that can truly express my gratitude! I remember going to their office without an appointment...I was instantly invited in and he’d stood up and pulled out a chair! He exhibited nothing but old school swagger! They’d talk about any subject without hesitation and made you feel like your opinions mattered through encouragement to free your mind! That’s an exceptional skill not many people possess....He was the REAL DEAL! Rest easy my friend!
