ANTHONY LABRIOLA Memoriam

Anthony Labriola was born in Ripacandida, Italy, on Sept. 11, 1928 and died peacefully in his Blue Island home on October 26, 2009 after bravely battling illness for 16 years, throughout which he remained faith-filled and good-natured. Tony served proudly in the US Navy and participated in the Operation Crossroads nuclear projects. He was employed by the Clark Oil Company for 40 years. Tony is survived by Betty Lou (Lundin), his loving wife of 59 years; his beloved children Steve (Cloe), Cynthia (James) Devlin, and Anthony (Vicky); his loving grandson, Anthony Blaise. Preceded in death by Angel, his devoted Samoyed. A spiritual man, Mr. Labriola would bless with the sign of the cross all who visited. Our faith is our comfort. We believe one day we will be reunited at Heaven's door.

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven" My deepest sympathy that after this year there is hope you will find comfort knowing your father fulfilled his purpose and is at peace. God has & will bless you.

Dad, we love you and look forward to seeing you in Heaven based on your confession of faith in the atoning work of Jesus at the Cross. You understood that we are saved despite our demoninational labels, not because of them. Cndy, Anthony, Mom and I thank you for your years of devotion. We await (with Jim, Vicki, Anthony Blase and others) the promise of I Thessalonians 4.
Cloie, Janice, Scotty and I know that "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord". So you are not in a waiting room---that's Good News! God bless you in Jesus name--"glad you joined the gang"!
Love, Cloie and your son, Steven
