Tony was educated in
the arts and was an ac-
complished sculpturer
with works recognized
both nationally and in-
ternationally.
Always the gentle-
man, he enjoyed the
finer things in life and
two-gin-martini lunch-
es. Tony loved the mic,
singing the “oldies” and
dancing with the pretty
gals.
I was pleased to hon-
or my father’s request
to “always take care of
Tony.”
He will be deeply
missed but never forgot-
