Tony was a lifetime member of the Norco Fire Department, he also devoted his life to the Knights of Columbus Red Church Council #3634, as a 4th degree Knight and Grand Knight. His first job was at the St. Charles Herald Guide, that’s where he would meet Clara and start the many beautiful years they had together as a family. Tony was also the proud owner of Tony’s Maintenance. He was big into his community and big into his Lord. Both of which he served selflessly.

The family would like to thank the Norco Volunteer Fire Department, EMS, Ochsner Kenner, and Norco Fresh Market for everything they did for our father.
