Anthony J. Armagno

Dear Francine and family. I have a part of Anthony with me season after season. The two fig trees he gave me have blossomed into strong producers of terrific fruit. I personally miss his presence at the card table twice a week and the tremendous wisdom he possessed. He was such a treasure to our community!

Anthony was a true friend. I remember well the day he came to our door with the fig tree welcoming us into the neighborhood. We think of our friend often. May he be enjoying heaven now and forever.

As we continue to gather around the poker table on Monday and Wednesday evenings, I sincerely miss some of Anthony's favorite quips: "Bet on the strength of your hand." "The last two cards are 50-50." "Only two from your hand, only two from your hand, only two from your hand...." I also miss getting his wisdom on the care of my fig trees!

A true friend is the only way I can describe Anthony. he was one of the first people to welcome Rosemary and I into the community and yes , with his fig tree in hand. i looked forward to my stops to talk with Anthony at Anthony's driveway on my walks through the neighborhood. He will be greatly missed and rest assured heaven has gained a true friend.

Anthony was one of the first persons I met when I moved to the Highlands. We were in Stefania's Italian class, He was such a gentleman! We became good friends.

I met Anthony when we moved to the Highlands of Glenmoor over 3 years ago. Before too long he presented me with 2 small fig trees which have grown nicely and have actually borne beautiful figs. I will treasure them and care for them in his memory. Anthony was one of the most humble and gracious people I have ever met. He was always so happy to see whoever visited him. I always felt welcome at his home and enjoyed many wonderful hours with him at the card table. I am happy for him that he...
