I'm just finding out about your tragic loss. Your Dad will always have a special place in my heart. Dr. Parillo was a wonderful man. I'll never forget those countless Sunday's watching football with him and you guys. We had some great times together. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tony, you were not just a great boss, you were like family. One day, you handed me a great picture of you holding a huge fish you had caught. You told me that you were looking at all the photos of the people I cared about on my desk and you wanted to be there too. I still have the picture and I am grateful that you were in my life.

Dr. Tony: I will always remember you in our Life Light Bible class. You were so knowledgeable of scriptures. However, the one thing I will never forget - I thought of it today! You, having given the knowledge, was the first to give me the sad news that my wife Edie would die - that was four years ago. You told it so gently. I will never forget you for that. Your in heaven now, please give Edie a hug for me. Jim Lauckner

I miss you Dr Parillo, had I known that when I was last at your house last that it would be the last time: I would have hung around longer chatted with you and given you hugs. I know you are resting now and that gives me some peace. Miss you
