I appreciated the honor of meeting Tony and his family when he was the Guest of Honor at American Legion Post 556's POW Day in 2015. HIs attendance at our other functions, like our Pancake Breakfast, added dignity to the festivities. He was a good guy and we will miss him.

Tony was a wonderful neighbor and friend, always a joy to talk to and hear his insights on life. We are blessed to have known him. His outstanding bravery during WWII and the service he provided to all Americans will be only one of his many legacies. We will remember him with love always. Dan and Jamie O'Donnell
