Very sorry to here about this, Anthony was one of the classmates at Holy Trinity that I would have loved to see again. I remember he set up a "golf course" inside his house where we would play after school. He was a happy, funny kid.

Helen, Jolene & family,

My family and I are saddened by your loss. Anthony and I went all through school together. After school, while at Holy Trinity, we would go to his house and putt in the back yard. We both enjoyed golf. About three years ago, my wife, son, daughter-in-law and grandson had a wonderful opportunity to join Anthony for a weekend golf trip to Spy Glass in Monterey County. His hospitality and generousity were beyond belief. Gonna miss you Ant. God Bless you, may you rest in peace.

Your longtime friend, Jerry Iacono

Jolene,
Very sorry for your loss. Anthony was always a gentleman with a positive attitude everytime I spoke with him when I lived in town and occasionally when I would see him at an event. He would always greet me with that sincere smile of his and have a great conversation. I will miss those moments.
