Not sure what to say?

To all, I will miss my Uncle Tony very much so. Or as we used to joke later in life between us.

" My Favorite Uncle " and he would reply in 2 seconds " I am your only Uncle and don't you forget it "

When we were all very young back in the 1960's we used to trade Suffern, NY basements between my Father and my Uncle Tony for the watching the only Football game that mattered in the entire whole world Army VS. Navy . For those in attendance the Super Bowl back then was some stupid...

My Uncle Tony opened the door to a significant life-changing and rewarding gift: my profession. He introduced me to his contacts at Chemical Bank Real Estate Group in 1981. They hired me and put me in their credit training program. The rest is history. I hope I made him proud. I am forever grateful. He was my father's brother and best friend. No family celebration was complete without Tony holding court. The first funny man I knew and the life of every party. He was loved beyond measure now...

Tony was always Bigger than Life . . . a man who loved and lived life with all of his being! To me, he was a great Mentor who always had just the right words to keep me going no matter how tough the path seemed to be! Tony was truly, truly an amazing, giving and kind man who I will always remember with love for the Great Man he was! With love, Sarah

Friend and Mentor. You will be dearly missed, but certainly never forgotten. Thank you for being one of those significant voices in my life.

To Major General (ret) Tony Cucolo and family, from Staff Sergeant (ret) Ronald & Francine Copes we send our deepest condolences to you and your family in the loss of your father. May God bless all of you at this time.

Tony will be missed at Lakeside. I saw him at the Fitness Center about a year ago, and several times since then at lunch with Claire while I was with my Dad. My Dad and Tony were great buds.

Claire, Karen and I are sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your great loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn," sustain your family during this challenging time. Isaiah 61: 1, 2

With deepest sympathy, may the power of prayer ease your sorrow, give you peace and provide much comfort for you during this difficult time. Matthew 21:22

My sincere condolences to the family.
He was an extraordinary person. There
are no words that can ease the pain of
losing someone so beloved. May you find
comfort and peace in knowing that your
loved one is in God's memory because
those who pass on "are precious in His
eyes." Psalms 116:15.
