I went to School with Tony in the 70´s, at first we lived across from each other on Maple St, my Dad and Tony´s Mom rode together back and forth to GM in Dayton where they worked. Tony´s Family moved to Ron Heights and we moved to the Farm. But we was always friends and played together. I lost contact when we moved out of town but I will always keep our memories at Heart. Tony was a great man and I´m so sorry for your loss. God Bless all the Cole Family and will always be there if anyone needs anything!!

Tony cut my hair several years. He would call me his uncle (my last name is Cole). He liked giving me a hard time. Today I bought him a coffee from McDonalds only to find his shop closed & he had passed away. I am saddened by his passing.

We were crushed today to hear the devastating news of Tony’s passing. Tony has cut my husband and Son’s hair every 2-3 weeks for the past couple of years and we considered him to be a great friend. We always enjoyed coming in and sharing stories about our lives, joking around, and the hard time he always gave the boys. His shop was always filled with laughter and his was definitely contagious! He made such a memorable impression on everyone he met! Rest In Peace Tony! You will be greatly missed!

To Tony's family, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Tony was a client of mine, as I cut his hair every two weeks for 20 years, until he started Barber College. We always had great conversations and I continued to stop and see him occasionally after he became a Barber. I considered him a true friend. He will be missed by many. Praying for your family.

You will be missed Tony. It gets hard to breathe when I think about the last few days. Chris really liked you as a person and barber. I´m so very sorry this has happened. RIP Tony

Well our love of Dachshunds we often chatted. His weekly calls for his Don’s Pizza & sometimes more than once lol. We would chat & discuss what was news & of course exchange any gossip, our record of talking was 12 minutes by then my mom would holler at me lol. Tony would then as always sign off with later! So until then know you are loved & missed I’ll keep an eye on Tom & make sure he stays trimmed up & last always smile when I see anything Patriot’s! Later my Friend
