Dear Allison and Gill, I recently heard of Tony's passing and was very saddened by the news. I will always remember Tony for his passion for his work and his smiling face whenever our paths crossed. Tony welcomed me to the biomed community of New Zealand, and I will be forever grateful for the opportunity.
