Anthony Santucci

Tony served in the army during World War II and was captain of Fire Station 19 in North Miami Beach for 33 years. Family meant everything to him. He proudly spent his retirement as a full-time grandpa.

Tony was loved, adored, and respected by all who knew him. He enjoyed golfing, cooking, dancing, going on family trips and to the beach, building and fixing things, and spending time with family, friends, and his dog Sadie. He was truly the best and will be deeply missed!

A resident of South Florida for over 60 years, he is survived by his beloved wife, Barbara Santucci, adoring daughter, Linda Rouse, caring son-in-law, David Rouse and loving granddaughters, Megan and Lauren Rouse. He is also survived by stepdaughter, Brenda Ladd, and nieces and nephews and their families: John Santucci, Angela Mancini, Nicholas Sinisi, Kimberly Williams, Debbie Dillion, and Jimmy, Gary, and Rick Haggard. Tony was preceded in death by his siblings, John, Viola, Frank, Louis, Patrick Santucci and Mildred Sinisi and his stepson, John Bair.

The funeral mass will be held at St. Mark Catholic Church on Tuesday, April 5th at 1:00pm followed by the burial at Memorial Gardens North. Visitation will be at Fred Hunter's Funeral Home in Hollywood on Monday, April 4th from 6:00-8:00pm.
