Not sure what to say?

The obituary is beautifully written and spot on about this wonderful man, Tony Caputo! I belonged to All Saints Episcopal Church in SLC. Tony was so generous in helping us feed our parish for dinners at church! I also belong to P.E.O. and volunteered at the Tracy Aviary. He always gave a gift certificate when I "begged" from him. Not sure he ever knew my name, but he always knew ME! Thank you for sharing this great man. I am so happy I knew him!

I was shocked, totally shocked to hear of Tony’s death! I no longer live in Utah, but I have beautiful memories of this kind, funny and generous man. I lost count of how many times I came begging for my church, the Tracy Aviary and others where I volunteered. Tony, God bless you and your lovely family and may you be resting in peace, my friend. JudithAnn Wolcott Rule. I always ordered the Eggplant Parmesan sandwich when available!

I just learned of Tony's passing and would like to express my deepest condolences. Years ago I had the joy of working with Tony on a TV show on KJZZ. He cooked amazing dishes and brought cheer and joy to everyone involved, both participants and viewers. We all looked forward to his visits and I'm so grateful for the opportunity I had to work and interact with him.

Thank you Lord for allowing us to cross paths with Tony so many years ago. Peace to the Caputo family.

I have known Tony since his first days working at Granato’s Deli & Market. Tony was the face of that store. He was the friendly, welcoming & attentive member of the staff. I always loved visiting with him, he was so personable. I have to say that he was the one who brought life to that store; as much as I love the Granato family. I was pleased to watch him do so well on his own. All of my children and I will miss him. We are so blessed to have known him & had a personal relationship. He will...
