Oct. 7, 2011 TXMajor Men's 50 8 posts | Just got a text from one of our players about Tony: Memorial celebration for Tony Tucker , Sunday, oct. 9. – rain or shine—beginning at 10am, at Trinity View adult softball pavilion. The celebration will continue after the service with a potluck cook out, horseshoes and washers. We will provide the smoked meats, brisket, sausage and chicken, and we’re asking all participants to bring a side or dessert... And your beverage of choice. Hope to see you there. Sis’ Sue |
Oct. 7, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4190 posts | TXMAJOR,glad to hear of the memorial for tony,he would of loved to seen the out pouring for him......wish i could get over there from Henderson. |
Oct. 7, 2011 TXMajor Men's 50 8 posts | Agreed. I play with Wood Law/Silverbacks. The Legends have always been our competitors in this area. Tony was an obviously keen judge of talent and a competitor who loved the game. Though I never had the chance to play with him directly, my memories of him will be with great respect. |
Oct. 7, 2011 armiho211 Men's 70 449 posts | guys- the pavilion entrance is the very "first right" ( approx 30-40 ft ) you can make once you turn into the park off wildwood. follow the road approx 200-300 ft to the pavilion area. i was not aware of the pavilion being there, hope this helps. |
