Tony will be remembered for his singing voice, enjoyment of dancing, spending time with his grandchildren, fishing and riding his bicycle to the beach and around the neighborhood, and for his sense of humor. If you were with Tony, you were having fun!
He was preceded in death by his first wife Mary, his brothers Edward, Johnny, Lonnie, his sisters Marion, Bernadette, and Joan. He is survived by his wife Brigid, brother James, daughter Juliette Sherwood, son in law Keith Sherwood, three grandchildren Steven, Brandon, Christina, and several nieces and nephews.
Tony served in the U.S. Navy Seabees starting in 1953. After his service he was an electronics technician, and later worked in the New York City Department of Corrections, retiring as Deputy Warden.
His removal will be handled locally, and transferred to his final resting place at Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne, New York. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to a charity of your choice.
