Tony loved his motorcycle, a Suzuki Boulevard C50, and would often ride out to Batsto Village. He loved animals, listening to music, target shooting, and had many other interests. Most of all, he cherished spending time with his beloved wife and family.

I have some many good memories of Dad. I remember you coming to the house, walked in the kitchen to tell me... I will be in the garage working on my motorcycle...I always wonder "Dad's motorcycle was the nicest and it was always spotless! what can he possibly do to that motorcycle??..
He loved his family, but the love and dedication he had for Carol (meemom) was admirable. I will always remember you, you will always be the father that I really never had, you will always be in my heart.

Tony had a special place in all of our hearts. He was truly a first class gentleman. I never heard a disrespectful comment from him. He suffered a long time and is now at peace. Heaven is richer for the addition of this wonderful man. God be with Carol at this sorrowful time. We all support her in prayer.

Anthony and I were first cousins. I remember the many happy times and the funny things he said and did. He cared for his parents and found time to check up on his cousins. I will always remember him and will miss him.
