The memories and good time are a mile long. From playing basketball,bowling,or working on a house, from the fruit truck to the work truck, and HOLIDAYS. It will never be the same without you... VINNIE

Anthony was the son of my cousin, Mario and his wife, Marie. I only got the pleasure of knowing him at my brother Joe's funeral three months ago when we sat together at the luncheon in Cape May. He was a beautiful man! My sincere condolences to his wife and children; my cousin, Mario; his brother, Thomas and his Aunt Mary. May he join his beloved mother, Marie, and rest in the peace of Christ. Rose Milano
