Carmine A. DUKE

I had the pleasure of meeting Anthony (and Diana) many years ago through our families. My paternal great grandparents, Frank and Carmela Cianciosi, were born in the same Italian town-Furci, as Mr. Angelo Duke, and as paisans, they were all so close with one another-and lived in East Lovejoy together. About 22 years ago, I hosted a "Beato Angelo" celebration for all the paisans in Buffalo whose families came from Furci. These were wonderful parties and Anthony was always so proud to attend. ...

My deepest sympathies go out to Diana (Mom), Bob, Ken and Mary Ann and the rest of the family. There are no words to express my sadness at this time. Anthony (Dad) was a gentleman in every way with an infectious smile. He loved to talk about how the market was doing, checking the paper every day. I have so many many good memories that will always stay close in my heart. He is now reunited with Bruce in heaven. I love you all so much! Kathy (Duke) Simme
