Anthony Sensi Obituary

Anthony Sensi

It is with great sadness that I report the passing of my father. At 0800 Friday July 1st, he lost his fight with cancer. He went peacefully in his sleep with mom and I at his side. Anthony Sensi, most knew him as Tony, and a very select few called him Captain, was a Naval Officer, Naval Aviator, Vietnam veteran, airline captain, father and husband. He brought all his aircrews back safely, delivered untold numbers of travelers to their destinations around the world, and was the best husband and father anyone could have asked for. He will be terribly missed.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth...

Special thanks to UCSF staff, Hospice By The Bay, and Roxana's Family Care.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I will miss Uncle Tony's jokes and weird sounds he made. He was one of the first funniest men in my life. I'll never forget one time when I was a teenager and he asked me how I felt about "Milli Vanilli" coming out as a fraud. He asked me if I felt betrayed by them. Lol!!
My daughter Maleigha will miss the only Grandpa she ever knew.
Fly high Uncle Tony, as you always did.
We love you.

Dear Sally and Andy,
I am so sorry about the passing of your husband and father. I know what a tight knit family you were and the void his passing will leave. Sally, you were a great partner to him, this I know for fact. Bless you both during this time of loss. Sisko
