I was privileged to know Tony. I liked him . What a great guy....beloved by family and friends and happy at the end of life surrounded by wife and family. Who could ask for more. Except to have the good guys stay with us longer.
Goodby Tony, your legacy of goodness, fairness and love will live on.

Matthew 5:4
Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Our hearts ache right now but accept this promise from the Lord. We shall be comforted in our love and memories of a man who touched the hearts of all that knew him.
Uncle Anthony was a great man. His love, wisdom and terrific sense of humor were ever present. He was passionate about his family and friends, his work and his hobbies. He was a unique man who enriched the lives of all who met him and we will miss him so very much.
In love and sympathy,
The Maiorana nieces and nephews

Norma, I read about Mr Sano in the paper and was so sad to hear the news. He was a great man with a great sense of humor and a lot of love to share. I know you will miss him and I am so sorry for your loss. I enjoyed our short physical therapy sessions together as he tried really hard to distract me from exercises with all of his wonderful stories! Praying comfort and peace to you and the family.
