Anthony "Tony" Longo

Have a great of Tony.
I am Luca Longo, and I was at Aunt Mary's house in 1976 with Grandpa Nicola, Aunt Mary's brother.
I am close to you and with great sorrow I learn this sad news because we are of the same blood.
I have wonderful memories of your hospitality and happy times spent with Tony and Steven.
Steven, I would love to get in touch with you, but I cannot get a hold of you.
Please contact me at this address

Hugs to all the family.

When we were kids Tony and I worked on a go-kart that my older brother gave me. We had some fun running that around Elberon.

I was at an AC/DC concert with Tony at the Continental Airlines arena (who remembers that?). During the concert while the music was extremely loud, I look at Tony who looks like he's trying to tell me something but I can't hear a word he's saying. This goes on for 10 minutes or so and at that point I said forget it - we'll catch up outside. So after the show (2nd AC/DC show that weekend which was St. Patrick's Day) I asked him what the heck we're you trying to say to me. He just answered nothing, that he was just moving his lips/mouth, not making a sound, and making something funny out of a loud/fun night. We had many laughs together over the years and I shared Tony's love of music and good stereo equipment which we debated many times with Bose usually the mutual choice. A big musical taste between us was the blues. We shared many artists and songs over the years. I'll always remember Tony loving good music, being an excellent chef, and a super proud father. He talked of Giovanni every time we saw each other. You could see it in his eyes how proud he was of Gio. We'll miss you Tony, wish we hung out more and grabbed a few more shows. Here's to Tony, the music-loving chef, the proud father, and the friend who could make a silent conversation rock! May you rest in peace. Don B

p.s. We'll keep on rocking in your memory, one song, one bite, and one shared story at a time.

Remember, life is short, so crank up the tunes, savor the flavors, and cherish the good times - just like Tony would have wanted.

A happy memory of Tony with his legendary Aunt Mary, cute bro Steven and Aunt Patty. Rest In Peace Tony.
