Tony Perelli’s Tongass Story

"More important to me, however, is the fact that the Tongass exists in its most undisturbed state."

From Tony Perelli, of Eagle River, Alaska:

“I’ve visited the Tongass, I’ve also benefited from several meals that came from the seas there, too. More important to me, however, is the fact that the Tongass exists in its most undisturbed state. I believe we are a better society with these natural and cultural reserves. Additionally, just as I don’t see some family members as often as I wish I could, my life is enriched knowing they are home and in their most undisturbed state.”
