Condolences to the Yates family, I am deeply sorry for the pain and emptiness of heart. May the many memories you shared and the passing of time help to comfort you. Soon all pain suffering and death will be no more. (Revelation 21:4)

Life is the greatest gift that God has given us. Death is only a bridge towards eternal life with God. Heaven is rejoicing for Tony has finally reached his true home. Worked with Tony many years he was a good friend and I will miss him but rejoice in knowing I will see again one day in Heaven. May you find peace and comfort through our Lord Jesus Christ today.

My Deepest Condolences to all of Tony's family

Tonda, no words can express our sadness of Tony's battle with cancer. What a homecoming in Heaven that is going on right now. I rejoice alongside the Angels that Tony is home & in perfect form, singing Praise GOD! You are in our prayers that the comforter holds you up in the coming days.

What heartache we have for your family. Just finding out about this news, been out of town & out of touch for far too long. May we extend our deepest condolences & heartfelt love for your family. May we also say that praise GOD that we still have an exuberant amount of happiness that Tony is no longer in pain. We cling to the hope we have in CHRIST & believe that GOD is holding him in HIS precious arms right now. What a rejoicing sound the Angels must be singing that a Child of His very Own has come home. May the LORD give you peace & comfort in the coming days. May His arms surround your family with His love & hope. And, finally, may you always look forward to your reunion in Heaven. We cannot express how much we love you & miss seeing you. Our prayers are with you.

Tony and I met in 1996 when he was a young, top-notch structural designer at Randers Engineering. We spent a lot of time together at work-including trips to Ohio and Kentucky lining up work. His wry sense of humor made the long trips go easier. Our paths crossed many times and it was my pleasure to work with him after his career change as a Project Engineer. We were at the Belle, WV, chemical plant, and it was a big change which he handled well. I know he was excited to get the position at KY Carbon so he could be near his loving family, his friends and "home". That was something he was always striving for. Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Words cannot express the sorrow felt for those Tony leaves behind. But, at the same time, words cannot express the joy felt for him as he is now safe and well in the arms of our precious Savior! Tony touched the life of every person he came in contact with, always had a smile and a bit of humor to pass along. My heart is with all the family... I love you all!

To all Tony's family and friends, a heartfelt prayer for strength, comfort and courage to see you through the days and months ahead. May you each find peace in knowing that one day all the pain and heartache we experience in this life will be remembered no more. Christ promised those who accept Him as Savior that we will enter into eternal peace and rest when we cross from this life to the next. What a glorious, comforting thought. May that promise sustain you until you meet with Tony in Heaven.
