Petro family.
Sorry for your loss, I only remember being around tony a few times as a kid. The cousins would always go in the pool and Tonys father would play his guitar in the backyard. I wish the family was closer and I knew him better. R.I.P Tony

Petro Family-
I am sorry for your loss. I can remember happier days as children playing manhunt in the woods and going to Neptune City Day together we all had so much fun as kids in Shark River. Tony will be missed and your family is in my prayers.

Tony I don't know if you remember me, however, I lived on Monroe Ave in Whitesville. I was in your house a couple of times and I remember the wine that your dad made. I lived next to Louie Dela Petro. I am so very sorry to read about your son and offer my condolences Tony. I am a few years younger than you, Richard Fisher's age who was your neighbor. I have been living in Fl. for past 26 yrs.
Tony, my best wishes for you and yours in the future...
