Thanks for everything you have done for the I.A.C.L. and for the Italian community. You were a great member who will be greatly missed, the Bocce tournament will never be the same without you. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Tony loved "Buckskinnin'", and he loved being Santa. I knew him in both capacities. He played Santa in several commercials I made at KUTV over the years, including one for Kirkhams, and one or two for the station. You couldn't find a better "Jolly Old Elf". And he made sure he never broke character in front of kids. He WAS Santa.
He loved camping in period garb with The Mountain Men of the Wasatch, and in later years always visited the rendezvous' at Fort Buenaventura and Fort Bridger...

To Donna and family -The first time I met Tony was when his sister, Mary, introduced me to him and his friend, Buzz Behle. It was a warm summer day and the two of them were playing a game of "fling the cards into a hat" at Tony's house. I remember double dating w/you and Tony; going to concerts at Lagoon and of playing
cards w/the Kelsey's.

May your memories and knowing others care help sustain you in your sorrow.

Santa Clause, (Tony) I will never forget my memories of you. You were a great man.
Thank you.

Wow! The Greatest Santa Claus has gone to heaven! What a kind loving jolly man Tony was. We all loved him and are sad we found out about his passing to late to make it to his funeral.
Tony touched to many hearts to number. We were so privilaged to know him and his family.
What a great reunion must be taking place in heaven with Shari and his other family members that have gone on before him. Take care our great friend, until we meet again. Thanks for all the great memories...

To my family may the great spirit be with thru this time of loss. With much love

I'm sorry for your loss. You will be missed Tony. We are thinking about you. You now are flying with the angels in heaven. We will see you again in the future.
