Donations from the funeral service

Today, our thoughts are with 'Tony's' family and friends. May you find peace in your memories, and comfort knowing that he will never be forgotten.

From Upton Cross to Harold Road schooling to our last meeting, you were a great friend.
Sadness is not the right words, heartbroken yes.
RIP, TONY, sleep well my friend XX

It's been a pleasure Tony many a good night over the years. RIP Tony,sleep well mate..

He was a good friend x

Uncle Tony. You were the best uncle anyone could have. So many memories! you trying to give me a sip of brandy and a cigar as a baby. When I grew up the famous snowball drinks, far too many! Your sense of humour was wicked. Your heart was huge and your generous nature was next to none. Im sure you and dad will be together having pie and mash in the next world. I can hear you now saying "not arf". Miss & love you. JoJo

In loving memory of the legend, Uncle Tony. I have such great memories of those crushing handshakes when I was a young boy. I'll never forget having my first pint you gave me, and getting legless for the first time at our family get-togethers in Canvey Island.
​Rest in peace.
Gary, Susanne, Heather, Caitlin O'Neill xx
