With his wife by his side, it is with profound sadness to announce the passing of Antonio at the age of 84 at St. Peter’s Hospital Palliative Care.
Left to mourn are his wife Christina (Mirka) of 52 years. Also his son Richard and wife Adina, and his daughter Tania and husband Philippe Erhart. He adored his family, especially his grandchildren Daniella and Anthony Lopez and Stephanie, Gabrielle and Tristan Erhart (all of whom could do no wrong in his eyes). Tony will be remembered for his weekend card playing and, of course, his sports – especially playing and watching his beloved soccer.
He was a renowned portrait and wedding photographer in the Hamilton area for over 35 years. Many thanks to Dr. Marcellus (hematologist) and Dr. Major (oncologist) at Juravinski Hospital for their compassionate care. Thank you also to St. Peter’s Palliative ward for their comfort and kindness extended to Tony for the five weeks he was there. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to TRUSCOTT, BROWN & DWYER FUNERAL CHAPEL. According to Tony’s wishes, a private funeral will be held for his immediate family only. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation in Tony’s memory to Juravinski Hospital.
