Hi Family, you have my condolences. I knew coach Wilcox as a student from East High. He was very nice & courteous. Everytime he saw me I would speak & he would reply hello Christmas "LOL" May he RIP. He will be forever missed.

Memories of Wittenberg basketball games and the likes of Tony V., Don W., Eldon M., Bert P., and (of course)Terry D. snarfing up all the rebounds - wow!

I knew Tony for only a few years at Wittenberg U. He was the consummate basketball player, but was also fascinating to watch at track meets. Always found him to be a gentleman, too. RIP

Thank you for everything coach!

Tony was my assistant coach at CWRU. Not only was he an extremely talented basketball player and coach but a very caring individual. His sense of humor brightened our day even when the scoreboard wasn´t in our favor. My sincere condolences to the family.

Best coach I ever had! His belief in me gave me drive and purpose at John Hay! #globetrotter#Clevelandlegend
