My childhood memories of Uncle Tony are with him grabbing me by my cheeks each time I visited him and Zia. Showing me the proper way to hold a knife to cut my food, and knowing how I truly appreciate Italian food and showing me different types of it.

My deepest condolences. Years of great memories I hold dear stay with me. Fun with the family, swimming in the pool, large dinners in the dining room. Now he is with Zia, Mom and Dad and they are enjoying themselves and having a great laugh together. My love to you all.
