Tony

had been

in Vets

court for

over a

year was

still in

phase one

and had

been taken 

back into

custody three

different times

but he

dealt with

setbacks

and relapse

with humility

and maintained

his dignity

even when

the judge

talked to

him like 

a child

so we

were all 

surprised

when he

hung himself

the same

day the

bank took

his motorcycle

away.
