Anthony Allen Desko

Anthony, you were my favorite person at West and I was lucky to get you for my Team lead. You treated everyone the same and made who ever you came in contact with a better person. I guess it was your time to go and though we may not understand why, there must be reason for everything. We will miss you freind.

Even though I did not know Allen that well I met him once and the first time I met him was sadly the last time I would ever see him. He was and still is my second cousin he was the best religion statuary maker in the would he made a crucifix for my grandma kopycinski and it was awesome.One characteristic I noticed about him was that he always smiled even though he was at his Uncle Gerald's funeral he made me think about all the fun times I had with my grandpa.Hopefully he knows that everyone...

We were saddened to hear of Allen's illness and now moreso... he was a terrific member of the Holy Cross family. He will be missed.
May God bless Allen.
May God bring peace to his mom and sister.

I was so sad to hear of Allen's passing. It was so many many years ago we worked together at the tannery. But as I read through this guest book I see that many things changed in our lives but some remained so very constant. I remember Allen from when we were in our young 20's as one of the most gentile,kindest people I have ever met on this planet. He never had an unkind word to say about anyone and was a true pleasure to work with. I remember the love and closeness he shared with his family...

Over the past 20+ years, our family was truly blessed each Saturday evening when we were personally greeted by Allen at Holy Cross Church where he was an usher and Eucharistic Minister. He always had such a wonderful smile and a personal greeting for each of us. He never forgot our names. He always made us feel like we were being welcomed into his home, and it always meant so much to each of us. We are comforted in knowing that he is being joyously welcomed into God's home now. Our...

Dearest Anthony:
It is hard for me to imagine that I won’t see your smiling face anymore.
I won’t hear your laugh with it’s
“Devilish” undertone and how I could make you blush at the drop of a hat. We always had so much in common
to talk about-“Dancing with the Stars”, how we would plot to finally “get out of WEST”, and especially, CATS! I am glad I have an angel with a sense of humor watching down on me.
I have to laugh-you know that.
Thank you being my confidant during...

I was fortunate to work with Anthony for 8 years at West. Anthony set a wonderful example for myself and all the others whose lives he touched. He was one of the nicest and hardest working people I've met. We used to have conversations about our cats all the time. He will be missed. I will keep his family in my thoughts, and I extend my sympathy to them.

It eases my mind, to know that God needs our Anthony at this time.
I know he is all right in God's hands.
Anthony I worked with for 2 1/2 years at West Corporation.
He is the kindest, most caring, person I have ever met in my life.
I will miss him so much and think of him often.
There is no one that can compare to Anthony Allen Desko, he was my good friend and supervisor as well.
He will be with my good friend Steve Przybylski who also at the age of 53 passed away in...

Anthony was one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever met. He will definitely be missed. I am very lucky to have know this wonderful man.
