Just got the news that Tony of the Perth Southsiders lost his battle with cancer last night and passed away in his sleep.
Hearts goes out to Leonie and his family he will be missed.
I believe the funeral will be next Thurs at Fremantle at around 3 the details should be in Saturdays west
Rest in peace mate, it was my pleasure knowing and sailing with you
sad news, only met him a handful of time but was always a friendly guy. lets hope there is more wind where ever you may go
A sad day, and he will be missed by all his windsurfing mates.
Have fond memories of our trip to Gnaraloo. Makes me smile each time I recall his slant on the trip.
Fond memories indeed.
Condolences to Leonie and family.
R.I.P. Tony - a gentleman on and off the water.
I trust you have found flat water and strong breezes.
Forever a Perth South Sider - SailNumber AUS-84 - Grand Master
Condolences ;-(
How come us windsurfers don't do what surfers do and paddle out in a large circle and place flowers in the water?
A Thanksgiving Memorial Service to celebrate the life of Mr Anthony Douglas Grace of Winthrop will be celebrated at FREMANTLE Cemetery. Please gather in the West Chapel on THURSDAY (12.4.2012) at 3.00pm.
RIP Tony, unless it's blown 20kn +
(hopefully you can get the "big guy" to be a bit more consistant)
Our condolences to your family.
It's hard to put the words down at times like this, but hoping you keep an eye out over us on the water and maybe just give us a little nudge when going for those backies and loops.
It was a pleasure to shoot the breeze with you.
Karlo, Edita & Kai
Ben and I will miss you Tony. We remember the dinner we had at Gnarloo bay drinking a top shelf red, laying back and staring at the stars.
A great night to remember you by.
Ben and Damon
Just seen this post.... Totally gutted, a great loss to all indeed. Absolute gentleman and will be sorely missed for his companionship on road trips and sense of humour...
