Tony Borg (1962-2018) his life was one of continuous service to the Gozitans

Abstract

Tony Borg was 56 when he died (born in 1962), after a battle with cancer which lasted six and a half years. I got to know him when he was a student at the University of Malta during the 1980s. I was one of his lecturers and we remained friends since then. I also got to know his parents very well. During my time as Director of the University Gozo Campus, I often resorted to Tony鈥檚 assistance when he headed the secretariat of Minister Giovanna Debono. Liaison between the University and the Gozo Ministry was of major importance for imparting tertiary education in Gozo and Tony鈥檚 support in this regard was invaluable.
