Antone was known to many by his nickname Tony. He worked at Sablatura's Grocery Store for over 50 years. Tony spent many years fixing small engines, lawnmowers, weed eaters, and chainsaws. He enjoyed caring for his cows and other animals around the farm and he loved to dance around the house to polka music. He was a lifelong member of Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Frenstat where he ushered and helped count Sunday offerings. Tony helped with the annual Bazaar each year. He was a kind and loving man who was always willing to lend a hand. Many admired his contagious smile and great sense of humor. He was very loved and will be greatly missed by his family and many friends.
