Tony Lum

[dgraber460 at aol.com]

I did not know Tony well, but lament the passing of any of our internet group, and my prayers are for peace and understanding for his family and friends.
Yes Ed it does give one a bit of introspective perspective.
As a sign over the entrance to a cemetery in Bolivia reads:
    "Today my turn - tomorrow yours" 
Rest in peace Tony Lum......................

I met Tony a number of times at different gatherings. Great guy. Always upbeat 
and fun to chat with. Definitely sad to learn of his passing. Too many of late, 
both in the Audi community and my own circle of life. Sure does give one some 
perspective.

So sorry to read this news. Tony was a really nice, mellow guy and I really 
enjoyed his company at Audi/VW events in a the past couple decades.

It's sad that we lost two Audi fans just within the past couple of months. First 
it was Darren Hale, now Tony Lum.  May they rest in peace.
