I worked with Tony at ADT for 11 years. I was as green as grass when I started and Tony was a guy who taught me a lot about the business without ever making me feel like I was taking his time away from something more important. He was always fixing something electronic.., radios and tvs and test equipment. He's the only guy I ever met who built his own lathe! He of course was too parsimonious to buy one. - Posted by: David Livingstone (Friend) on: Feb 20, 2016
