Gary Prior So sorry to read of Tony’s passing, was just thinking of him the other day. He helped me get my first job in the restaurant business at the ‘ Coach and Four Restaurant’ in Bastion Square. My thoughts are with you he was always so nice.

Brenda Tony, today I guess I’ll be saying “goodbye”! I only knew you the last 6 years but I will treasure our time forever! You were full of “spunk” and i loved that about you. You were a kind gentle soul with your crystal blue eyes, loving to everyone and everything! Whenever I’m in the garden, I know you’ll be there with me. I love you so much Tony! You were my brother too! xo …..Until we meet again.

Michelle Amyotte Smith For the Lima Family, condolences are sent from afar. It has been years since I’ve seen Tony, but as a high schooler I remember his easy smile that would light up a room, his attitude that nothing could get him down and he always looked euro-sharp! That I remember well!! May he rest in peace and may his family give comfort to one another at this sad time.

Rick Coles Tony, I am sad to hear of your passing. Our journeys through life were intertwined during school, but separated after, never connecting again. I am sorry for that my friend.
We were always the ones stuck in the front row of the primary school pictures holding the chalkboard with the class info on it!
See you in the next life. My condolences to the Lima family, whom of which I have always had place for in my heart.
Rick

Inga Liimatta Fond memories I will always have of Tony.

Mark Chalecki Tony was a dear and loyal friend through Junior and Senior High School. Though it has been many years since we last spoke I still think of him as an inspiration to be good at what we do. A skilled craftsman and talented musician who often talked about his family whom he loved, respected and learned from. I know I’ll see you again sir.

Gregg Buckley I would like to offer my sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Lima Family, and to all of those that are grieving the loss “Tony”.
Though we had lost touch over the years, whenever reminiscing of years gone by, Tony would often come to mind.
And while remembering, I would laugh as I recalled some of the antics that we shared in, (which as Geoff has said above, where often mischievous). Tony was a wonderful spirit, and I will also treasure those memories of him with deep fondness. Again, my deepest sympathy’s to the Family. Psalm 23.

Geoff Taylor My deepest sympathy to the family, and to all who knew Antonio Lima, for this is a tragic loss. There were many struggles in his life, as there are for so many of us, but Tony was a great (and often mischievous) spirit: full of life and laughter. We had some great times together, and Tony was a wonderful friend to me – especially in our younger days. I treasure the memories of our conversations and all the things we laughed about, and I will honour those memories by laughing at myself and soldiering on bravely, as Tony did. “ICBC,” he’d say as some hilarious understanding dawned upon him, and like his late brother Virgil, he’d also say, “What goes around, comes around.” I hope we all come around to seeing Tony again, in the sweet hereafter. I know we’ll have a few good laughs. Godspeed Antonio.
