Sorry to hear of Anthony´s passing. He coached our track team at Gordon Tech and influenced all of us in so many positive ways.

I taught and coached with Tony at Niles West High School. Tony was an excellent teacher in the Business Education Department and a very good coach for the Track & Field Team. He was an even better friend. Condolences to Robin and his family. Later this week when I am in Ireland, I will pray for him at Mass and light a candle in his memory. May he rest in peace.

I worked with Tony for many years at Stagg H.S. He was always there to help in resolving a situation with a smile and professionalism. He was one of the best.
