Not sure what to say?

Father Tony was an outstanding priest . My two sons Danny and Drew and two other nephews spoke openly about this genuine man, who was dedicated to Christ and had a great understanding for the young men of Saint Peter's Prep. He will be missed by all who knew him.

I will miss you very much Cuz. I only really knew you going up as teenagers. You at Brooklyn Prep and me at Tech. We took different paths but actually you were and still are my "bright light" to follow. Maybe you know that now. You did good Cuz! Much good. There are very few " Azzarto's" on this planet. We will always make you proud and happy. I'll remember you in my prayers and thoughts...and actions everyday..watch over us.
