What a great classmate.Have not seen Anthony in almost 50 years. Regardless, I have fond memories of our NORTH PROVIDENCE HIGH SCHOOL days to include the baseball team. He always had a smile on his face. What a wonderful uplifting person. Anthony,you will be missed because you were always a joy to be with.
