Anthony was a neighbor of our family. He lived directly across the street from us in West Haverstraw, N.Y. We became friendly with Anthony shortly after he moved to West Haverstraw. We used all of Anthony's construction skills to upgrade & improve our townhouse. He was a kind, intelligent & graceful man. He showed his kindness & warmth when he rented the entire 3rd floor of his house to my son-in-law, John Shoemaker, who was transferred to the Hartford area for his military work. Anthony will be missed
by our entire family. He was a true gentleman. The ErBerti & Shoemaker families.
