Memories of Tony? We have a million.....getting engaged to Diane in the back seat of Dundee's car on our prom night.....enjoying an Irish birthday party every year with Colleen on St. Patrick's day.....so thankful for how Patty could clean the house for him.....standing as sponsor for Billy on his confirmation.....so grateful for Erin's loving care of Danielle.....teaching little Cathy how to fly a kite on the beach at Wildwood.....and holding tight to Abby to keep her from being scared at the Highland Park fireworks on the 4th of July......and for his unwavering love for Bill and I for all these years. We'll not see another like him....until we meet him again in Heaven, that is!
Godspeed, Tony.

Diane and family,
I am very sorry for your sudden loss of Tony. I first met him when we were 11 years old and had moved to the South Side neighborhood where we were part of the pre-teen group. Fond memories of those days. It was nice to see him in recent years and I especially enjoyed talking with him at the dinner, hosted by my cousins, the Orlandis, at the Little Venice. I had not seen him much since high school and I was very impressed with the nice man he had become. You were fortunate to have such a wonderful partner in life. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
December 5, 2019
Aunt Diane, Gina, Danni, Rosemary, Nikki and all the Stento Grandchildren. Overwhelmingly heavy heart for everyone. All who had the privilege of knowing Uncle Tony was blessed to be a part of a One of a kind man. He loved, prayed and believed deeply, I will miss him alongside with thousands of others. He took my birthday cake over to a mutual friend, Anna ...it was one of a million acts of kindness he did for others every day. Aunt Diane, you are loved by him every minute of every day...just like always. Look at your girls...his job was done. Pattie Wrighter

Dear Diane:
My heartfelt condolences to you and your beautiful family!
Tony was one of the finest of men I've ever known. He had such a kind and gentle heart. He was authentic in every way.
I can still see him coming to my mother's room at Vestal Nursing Home, while we were at her side during her final days...He said, Come with me, you don't need your car, I'm driving.! We asked where he was taking us, he said, Diane's making meatballs, your coming to our house.
You both have touched our lives in the most profound way.
I will always remember that day and the days spent at the Danielle House. Goodbye, dear friend. Rest in Peace.

On Dec. 2nd. I lost a special friend physically along with a chunk of my heart. Tony (Lip) and I formed a friendship when we were about 5 yrs. old and have been the best of friends ever since. My life will never be the same with out his physical presence. A selfless, caring and a wonderful human being, was my friend Tony. I will forever cherish our friendship that we shared for the past 70 years. If Tony is not in heaven now...then there is no heaven. I love you "Lip" RIP

Most people travel through our lives and leave no footprint but some pass through our lives and leave a strong imprint on our mind, soul and heart. Tony Stento was the latter. A mischievous glint in his eye and a welcoming and warm smile on his lips greeted all who came into his presence. I am the poorer today with his passing but richer today for having had him as friend for so many years. He will be missed and remembered always.

Michele and I were deeply saddened when we heard of Tony's death. His obituary says it all. His love of family and his Savior was admired by all who were blessed to know him personally. We first met Tony when we were members of St. John's Parish in Binghamton. We have many fond memories of Tony and Diane from tail gating at college football games to working church bazaars. Tony had a positive impact on all who had the privilege of knowing him, including me. Our thoughts and prayers are with Daine and her lovely daughters but we take comfort that Tony is looking over them from heaven. May God bless Tony and may he rest in eternal peace.
