    Tony, Congratulations on your interesting career. My sister Jan told me about you. It’s great to see kids from Madrid succeed. I am a Delta Airlines captain living in Montana. I occasionally get to Italy (and love the country). My wife Cindy is from Boone. I have good memories of playing ball in the old neighborhood. I hope your brother is doing well also. Have a great life. Ciao

    Tony, Not sure I had anything to do with your talent, but I was your art teacher your senior year at Madrid. Your work is fantastic, I love your use of color. So glad I came across your website as I always wondered where your career took you.
