To Kathy and The Spinelli Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Tony. He was one of the most outstanding people I have ever known. While it has been a while since seeing my friend he will never be forgotten in the Urban house. 
He was a true friend and Gentlemen. A favorite in our house since we were kids. Wiffle ball tournaments were summer long battles that he always won. From his green glove to his money in his sock there was always something special about Tony!
Rest In Peace Tony. I am a better person for knowing you.

Tony was a special person! He  was compassionate with all the animals. He would tell me stories about the cats in his neighborhood and how would feed them and take care of them and his special bond with his kitty Bear.  I will miss his stories. 
I worked with Tony at Boca Woods and when I saw him, the first thing I would say "How are your babies"  How he loved little Bear and how attached they were. He would show me pictures of Bear. He always had a smile and good humor. 
I am so sorry for your loss Kathy, he always talked highly of you.
He will be missed!!

Kathy,
I am crushed about Tony’s passing. He was like another brother to me.  Have a lot of memories from Iona avenue, playing baseball and going to Narbeth park.  

Every time we would get together it was always a great time.  

We have a place in Jupiter and Cathy and I would like to get together the next time we are in Florida.  We can raise a glass in Tony’s memory. 

Kathy - I am so sorry to hear of Anthony’s passing. He was truly a compassionate and genuine man and was loved by so many people. Please find hope, peace and comfort in God’s love. Praying for you and the entire Spinelli family!💔🙏

Kathy, 

I am so for your loss. I’m truly devastated regarding Tony’s passing. He was a wonderful man who I loved dearly. My hope is that you allow God to give you a spirit of peace and comfort during this time. I will be praying for you and the Spinelli family. Love you much and please take care of yourself and be blessed.

Tony I’m still in shock. I’m holding on to a few memories. First to Kathy, your family and my cousins who are suffering, I’m so sorry for your loss. 

The memories are Tony showing me his baseball letters, running into him when he was driving the mail truck. We had lunch that day. Before I moved to Chicago you and Kathy had me over for dinner and we looked at your baseball albums. 

I don’t remember a time that you didn’t have a smile on your face. I’ll miss you. 

So sorry to hear of Tony’s passing at such a young age…  although I didn’t know Tony too well briefly at Boca Woods he was such a nice guy for all of us very charismatic and professional in every way.   My condolences to the family and know that Tony‘s legacy lives on. 

Kathy , I worked with Tony at Wayne Post Office. He was a compassionate and caring man as a co-worker and a boss. He invited me and my 2 girls over to help them with their computer skills and even supplied us with a computer. On my Father’s death he helped me with his Eulogy. He always had a kind word and made me laugh when I needed one. All of missed his presence when he left Wayne. He was one of the kindest & gentlest people I ever knew. We are Shocked and hurt over his passing.

Aunt Kathy I am praying for you in this time. You and Uncle Tony treated us as if we were your own blood. Uncle Tony was a very kind man who I never had to wonder if he cared for and loved my brother and I.  He really saw us. We weren’t just kids in the background of dinner but he made sure we were part of it. That made me feel important. From his sports memorabilia that he was give us on each visit, the stories he shared about his life and the nuggets of wisdom he passed along. Uncle Tony was a wonderful man and he will be missed greatly.

Kathy
I am deeply saddened to hear about Anthony.  He was indeed very  special.  His kindness and compassion towards our Abbey and all animals he cared for  was always deeply appreciated (as was yours).  Please accept my deepest heartfelt sympathy.  
In this picture is my Abbey on the left and my grand dog Rhodes on the far right.  

Kathy,
     I am so sorry to hear of Tony's passing. Tony gave so much to our neighborhood. The Grotto with the waterfall, his friendliness and his amazing instincts with dogs. May he rest in peace.

Tony was a great guy to know and work with. Kathy and Tony were fun people to go out with and to be around . So very sorry to hear of his passing. My deepest sympathy to all of his family.

I had the pleasure of working with Tony. He was an amazing person, full of compassion in everything he did. He had a beautiful heart. His Love for animals. I will truly miss you my friend and I know you are an angel. My condolences to the family and his wife of who he spoke of often. Rest in peace 🙏 

My deepest sympathy to Kathy and the whole Spinelli family.  Tony grew up on Iona Ave in Narberth PA.  Later the family moved to Havertown. He married and then years later, retired from the Post Office and moved to Florida.  There are many happy memories with Tony and the whole Spinelli family to be cherished,  especially the family baseball games we played where Tony was the star player.  Eternal rest to Tony and may he rest in peace.  Heaven is his reward!  Love, Aunt Ellen (Spinelli) Ronca

Tony's charisma was second to none, as he could always get me to smile and giggle. He definitely had that "Spinelli" charm, and that's one of the things I will miss most about him. Tony was a heck of an athlete growing up, and just a great human being over all. I'm so thankful we got to talk for awhile a few months ago. My deepest condolences to his wife Kathy and her family. R.I.P. Tony, I will miss you cousin!
