Tony and family are fine, but, sadly, his business he worked so hard to build is destroyed. Phone service was restored an hour ago, but he dosen't know when power will be back on. He wanted me to let his friends here know what's going on and tell you he'll be back in touch as soon as possible. So glad Gary canceled his trip!

Let's all wish our friend the best!

Its a sad state of affairs in Tony's area due to the hurricane...The main thing is he and family are ok...I hope he can rebuild and get on his feet asap without delay......
Thanx for the update Capt Russ

Russ:

Thanks for letting us know about Tony. I was really concerned about the hurricane staying in one place for such an extended time.

At least the family (and Tony) are okay. Hope he had insurance but don't know how that works in Mexico.

We have so much to be thankful for.

Regards, RICE (The Lone Arranger)

When I talked with Tony the day before the hurricane he said he had a bad feeling about this one and so did I. He also said he was confident that the way the storm was tracking it would hit them hard and he would loose the restaurant's roof at the very least. Thankfully, he and his family are safe.

This is really SAD news. I spoke with Tony perhaps only a few short hours before Wilma struck Cozemel. Realizing that he and his family live only 10 blocks away from his restaurant, I hope there was significantly less damage to his home. Our prayers are with you Tony. - Scott

Tony ... Happy to hear about the family, sorry to hear about the business ... our prayers are with you, friend ...

This is saddening, but at least Tony and his family, is safe. Let's not lie about it, rebuilding a business lost in the storm is very difficult.

Tony I am glad you are ok, I hope you have the strengh and courage to make it all work again. I wish you best of luck.

Russ is there any way we can help out by sending a donation to help Tony get through this ? I'd imagine things will be very hard for Tony and his family until he can get back on his feet financially again.

Tony,
our thoughts and prayers are with you; please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you out of this difficult situation.

Tony, I echo the sentiments of everyone here. Glad you and you're family are OK and I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your business. Take care.
