Uncle Tony finally gets to see his Mother (Granny) that he's been missing for a very long time now and been wanting to see again as well. Aunt Nancy will finally get her husband back in heaven and Aunt Helen can now talk his ear off to him again along with Dad bothering him again about anything and everything! Happy Days are here again in Heaven for Uncle Tony! I will miss this great man I proudly called Uncle Tony! Jeanne

Olivia loved visiting Uncle Tony at Parkway on Sundays after church. I'm sure his stash of candy there was one reason but she loved my Uncle Tony. I will miss his smirky Carta smile! The stories he would tell were priceless. He was a great man and I will miss his presence in my life dearly - like his coffee call visits with Dad bringing his own coffee mug and his Fish Fry adventures to OMOS at the Cake Booth. I love you and will miss you Uncle Tony. You were a matriarch of my family. God bless and say hello to Dad and Aunt Helen for me. My condolences to all my cousins. May God keep you in his heart and make us all stronger in our faith because of your Dad. Love Jeanne Mattingly, Olivia and Austin.
