What a remarkable man and devoted father. I am sure that Lindsey is as proud of him as he is of her .

Fabulous, inspiring story, loved it. No matter how much we falter or fail, there is always redemption. Clearly, Tony Garrett is living proof of that.

Well done, Tony.

Hoxton was indeed just like Tony wrote some very poor living conditions,it was a common situation for families father’s being in and out prison usually because trying to support the family it meant treading the wrong side of the law.Tony told his life story without remorse and regret,a fine example of a life well lived.Good luck to you and your family.

Tony Garrett is an inspiration. He turned his life around and now his daughter has done so much.
Thank you for these stories. I start every day with one of your posts.

To me, Tony Garrett is a celebrity. I don’t give a toss about those people who make it onto the celebrity pages and the reality TV shows. Young people could learn what life is really about by taking someone like Tony as an example, instead of mimicking the rich, spoiled, idiots and their messy lives. Lord, don’t I sound harsh?

So much here for reflection and admiration. Very glad you featured Tony’s story as well as Lindsey’s. They complement each other so well.

A very moving story! How many people would sell their house to finance four years of university for their children? He is a wonderful father to Lindsey, and gave her the chance that he never got. Valerie

Brilliant Tony, thank you for sharing such an insight into the reality of your life. Which PO unit, I wonder? Could all be a book in itself, I’m sure. Especially to highlight the community that will be broken up forever – for profit and not for social welfare.
