Beloved husband of the late Pauline (nee Stefanow) and the late Mary (nee Palmer). Loving father of John, Jennie (Vince) and Tony, Jr. (Jaque).

Also survived by his niece Donna. 

Tony proudly served his country in the US Army during the Korean War from 1951 – 1953. Tony had a great sense of humor and was loved by all who go to know him. He loved cooking, whether it was a big holiday celebration with all the trimmings or jus a casual dinner. Traveling and photography were his hobbies. 

During retirement Tony managed to visit almost every state in his RV. But mostly it was time spent with his family that he treasured, while hosting holidays and just casual get togethers. He loved all animals, especially wildlife, the wolf, his favorite. 

Private funeral services were held at an earlier date. In lieu of flowers contributions in Tony’s memory may be made to the World Wild Life Fund at https://protect.worldwildlife.org
