While not a computer user or member of this site many would know Tony Van Dyen.
Tony passed away at 8pm Dec 4 from a heart attack.

Tony was a founding member of VMR Beenleigh holding the call Beenleigh 10 since its inception.

Tony was a life member and past President of the Wia-Piro Fishing Club.

Big Tony will be remembered, sadly missed.
I sure hope there is somewhere better with lots of fish biting where old mates catch up and tell stories of their fishing days on earth.

Sorry for the loss of your friend Nugget. Sounds like the fishing community has lost another great member.

I remember Tony from my days working at Springwood Marine. He was a lovely fellow, like most of the customers that came through at the time actually..... My condolences to his family and friends.
