Anthony Frank Ilardo

Anthony popped into my mind this morning and I googled him. Sadly, I see he passed to the spirit world. Anthony hired me at Goldwater's dept store in Scotsdale in May of 1979. I was 22 at the time and had just gotten my license to do hair from (Classic Beauty College in Scottsdale). Anthony was a patient and very understanding boss.

Anthony hired me at his Salon when I first got married in 1989 and moved to Phoenix from Tucson. He was the BEST boss I ever had.

We are so sorry to hear this. Anthony was a wonderful neighbor and we enjoyed our frequent chats with him. He was a special friend to my Dad. Deepest sympathies. Connie and Tim Barnes

I am really going to miss Anthony! He was the kindest, sweetest man. I've know him for around 17 years through my hairdresser Carol, who's worked with him at several different Salons. He would always brighten your day with a laugh and a smile, or a funny story. I haven't seen him in a couple years since he retired,but I would always ask about him. My deepest condolences go out to us Wife Paula, and Sons and grandchildren. Heaven definitely gained a wonderful Angel❤❤
