- Description
-
Tony Grace was a big man, with a big heart.
His commitment to sailing was equal to his commitment to the wider community and was only surpassed by his commitment to his family.
A stalwart of the WA Windsurfing community, his ability to disarm people and infect them with his laughter and calm manner was evident in the large gathering of friends who celebrated his life and his involvement in their lives when he passed on.
Always up for a laugh, his presence lifted the mood on the beach even on the darkest of winter days.
His strength of character shone brightly when faced with a prognosis that his time with us was to be shorter than most. Wisely, he chose to approach life as he had always done, with a smile and optimistic outlook that truly warmed those around him.Tony was an esteemed member of the Perth Southsiders, regularly involved in the after sailing banter & frivolities at Melville beach.
His beaming smile, great sense of humour and helpful advice will always be happily remembered, while sadly missed.
Rest in peace Tony.
