This is such sad news. Tony was a wonderful addition to the Foxboro community as well as the Foxboro PD. Our youngest son was intrigued by first responders at a very early age. Tony always went out of his way to encourage our son. Tony and two other officers gave our son an official police officer shirt, badge, hat and other accessories. I cannot tell you how much fun our son had with those items!!! We have a wonderful picture of him at four years old in his uniform in front of Cappy, the Foxboro PD Volkswagen Bug. Tony's influence went a long way as our son is now a Major in the US Air Force Security Forces. Sending sincere sympathy to Tony's family.
