Helen and family,
We are so sorry to hear about Anthony’s passing. It’s a shock. We have many good memories growing up. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Eileen and Mike Appel

I didn't have the privilege of knowing Tony very long, only about 5 years or so, and even then, only enjoyed his presence via the grace of taking part in archery leagues and eventually, through the Suffolk Archers club. He was definitely one-of-a-kind, even in a room full of unique people, and could rail off the most memorable wisecracks without a hint of meanness. Maybe the most fun part of attending the various archery events was being around him. What a big heart, full of goodness! I'm going to miss him so much and I will keep his family and close friends in my prayers as we all adjust to being without him.

My heartfelt condolences go out to Mr. Anthony DiDio’s family and loved ones.

After many years competing alongside Tony in the “Freestyle Limited” (“Fingers”) division, I feel fortunate to have shared so many memorable moments with him.  I will especially treasure our final two tournaments together: the June 2026 Mid-Atlantic Outdoor Sectionals in Alloway, New Jersey and the August 2026 New York State Outdoor Championships in Hyde Park, New York.
I will always remember Tony and cherish our friendship.

Tony’s archery skills ran as deep as his joy. We will always cherish our times in the woods together. This is Tony setting his aim at the 60 yard line at NY State Field Championship. His first arrow flew a perfect arc to the dot ~> as pure as Tony’s heart.
Bill Herne & Julia Herne . Remember you always.

Prayers of comfort to the family  of my brother in law, Anthony Paul Didio. He was vibrant, strong, and dedicated to  family and all he did. He always demonstrated a strong exterior, but was kind in his heart. In the words of 2nd Timothy, He fought the good fight, he finished his course here on Earth. He has crossed the finish line and his soul is now in the hands of a merciful God, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I pray that he's walking now in the greatest of all wilderness areas, the pristine pastures of heaven. Rest in peace Anthony.

This is a great picture of my brother Anthony on the left, with my father William DiDio, and my brother Bill, at LaPrima restaurant in Plainview New York in 1967. Anthony started making pizzas there at the age of 12, taught by my father.

So sorry to hear that Tony passed. He was always a joy to shoot with and against. He will be missed on the archery line. God Bless Tony see you down the road. Dave Russell

Tony was a long time friend of mine in archery. We were competitors shooting the same style both Bowhunter Freestyle Limited and later Freestyle Limited. We dined at the same table at many events and shared many stories. I will miss him but knowing he has gone to a better archery field in the sky. Tony put them in the middle. 🎯
