As Tony ends his time with wondah coffee we want to say thank you, but how can Instagram do any justice to the weightiness of what Tony Blanco means to wondah and the city of niceville……
wondah was a coffee shop, and Tony made it a community.
Even as I (parker) scrolled through over three thousand photos, it was hard to even find ones of Tony because he was always behind the camera capturing the moments. Tony was always the one who was helping create the moments that were even worth capturing.
After 1.5 years of working alone and being on the cusp on not knowing how to take the next step in our business, Tony came and helped me loosen my grip on wondah coffee and began to hold it in his hands with Savanah and I. He began to nurture and give life to dreams that weren’t even his. There is a deep humility and love within his heart to have moved to a random place and begin immediately nurturing a community that was not his. To be so selfless in building into hundreds of lives and many projects knowing this wasn’t his forever home leaves us baffled.
Tony : we didn’t deserve the outpouring of sacrifice, patience, and love you gave DAILY. The effort you put forth has forever changed this city and your handprints are forever upon the foundation of wondah coffee. Working alongside
you has been one of the greatest pleasures of my life. You not only helped wondah coffee thrive, but allowed my marriage to do so as well, along with all the other relationships you poured
into.
We love you so deeply,
- parker & savanah
P.S - everyone please come give your love to
Tony this next week before he endeavors into the next beautiful thing ahead of him 🤍
