I was so sorry to hear about Tony's death. We had such good times and laughs at the funeral home. He will be missed by so many, but we have such good memories. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

When I followed my dad, Tom Harrington, into the insurance business, Tony was my LUTC instructor. My dad, who was also an LUTC instructor, told me Tony was a great teacher. He was indeed a wonderful man and by his example taught much more than insurance. Our condolances to his family,

We both worked with Tony at Prudential and will always remember his good nature and him always going out of his way to be helpful and kind to everyone. We all lost a really good person!

I have worked with Tony on many different occasions at St. Philip's church. Most importantly we brought holy communion to the sick at the hospital. We both brought holy communion to the home bound and filled in for each other. When Tony got sick, I brought him holy communion at home and then at the nursing home. I will miss him very much, however, I plan to stay close to Lou and keep her busy. Lou, I love you very much, you are like a sister to me. God keep you and your entire family safe and blessed always. Love ya, Gail

We will always remember Tony's sense of humor and how he was always ready to fill in at the ALS Mammoth Music Mart when needed. A real gem of a man who will be sorely missed by all who were priviledged to know him.

Tony was a wonderful human being who gave so much to everyone- especially the ALS community in honor of his brother Joe.



We appreciate all the years he spent volunteering at the Mammoth Music Mart and in organizing Tag Days in Addison along with everthing else he did to promote awareness and raise funds for ALS.



His cheerful smile and positive approach to life will be missed by everyone who knew him.



We are so grateful that we were among those to have been touched by Tony.



Our thoughts are with his family.

As a child I remember him as Buttons the Clown. Later as an adult I was able to work with him.

He was always trying to make you laugh but at the same time he was trying to pass on his knowledge.

Tony you will be missed.

Uncle Tony aka Buttons The Clown will be greatly missed. He always knew how to make us laugh and smile when we were kids. We might not have been family through blood, but we were family through our hearts and minds. I will forever be his Micalina.

Lucille and family you are in my thoughts and prayers.



Love always and forever

Mr. Fiacchino was my next door neighbor for my entire childhood. He brought so much joy to the Klimt family, and treated all us girls like we were his own daughters. We all loved him very much and will miss him. He will always have a special place in our hearts. Carole
