Antonio "Tony" Fierro

Born in Italy, Antonio ultimately made his home in the North End upon arriving to the United States from the old country. He became a familiar and cherished presence in the neighborhood. Known for greeting everyone with a warm smile, Antonio had a gift for making people feel welcome. He was a true "fixer of all things" always ready to lend a helping hand, repair what was broken and share his practical wisdom with family, friends and neighbors. He was always just a phone call away.

Antonio is survived by his devoted wife of seventy years, Virginia (Rosa), his son Angelo and his daughter Angela. He was predeceased by his beloved siblings, Carmella, Anna, Fedele and Giuseppe Fierro. He also leaves behind many loving nieces and nephews who will cherish his memory.

Antonio's kindness, generosity and ever present smile will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Family and friends are invited to visit and pay final respects on Thursday, March 12, 2026, in St. Leonard's Church, 320 Hanover Street, Boston, from 8:30 am to 10 am, followed by a Mass of Christian burial at 10 am. Ultimately, services will conclude at his final resting place at Holy Cross Cemetery in Malden, MA.
