Happy birthday in heaven to an amazing husband, father and friend.  Still in complete shock. I will always be grateful and thankful for the beautiful vegetable and flower garden you panted for me in my yard. I loved driving by your house, seeing you outside with the dogs in your yard and will miss stopping to get out to chat with you.  Our Home Depot car rides were fun. Lots of laughter while picking out veggies. Thank you for creating such a beautiful son and daughter. I promise to be in Joanne’s life as her true friend. You will be kept close to my heart. Thank you for sharing your most precious hobbies in your life with me. I love you and will truly miss you and your big smile. Xoxo

I am so saddened deepened by the  loss of Tony who was so near and dear and good to me for 10 years as his tenant.
He was truly a wonderful  and caring man and I cared for him so much.
I am deeply sad of his passing and am sending many prayers to. The family ❤️❤️❤️

I am grateful to have met Mr Anthony.  

Mr Anthony always greeted me with a contagious smile as he attended to his Flowers every morning.  Although it was a small gesture it went a long way, especially on the cloudy days.  It has taught me to always have a positive outlook on life even if i may not understand at that very moment. I will always remember him for his strength and his gentleness. 

May you live forever in the hearts of those who love you. 

Thank you Mr. Anthony.
Much love, Jaison Bueno

Although I didn’t know Tony that long, we all grew to care for him. He was a special part of our lives and someone that will always be cherished. He never came over empty handed. Brought us plants for our yard and fresh fruits and vegetables from his yard. Tony had a heart of gold and we accepted him as part of our family from the first day we met him. He and my mom had a lot of love for each other and though it only lasted a short while, it was true love, the kind of love that most people only dream of. 
Tony, we will never forget you. Watch over us and protect us. RIP 🙏🙏🙏 ❤️❤️❤️❤️

It all began in January 2001.  Our Nino was only 3 months old.  We were neighbors and just like that we were like family!  You were so good to us.  Never said “No”.  Anytime we asked you something, you always had an answer, a solution!!! After my mom died , you would come and share an espresso ☕️ with my dad. You both sat together and cried because you both lost your wives! 🙏🏼✨✨ I remember the day I came to your home crying that I wanted to learn how to make fresh tomato 🍅✨sauce. My mother had died and we were clueless on how to do it. I remember you looked at me and you cried with me and told me, “ what are you worried about? I help you make sauce!” That was our tradition every August!  You were a bull!! 💪🏼✨✨Our sauce always came out thick & delicious!! We don’t know what we are going to this summer.  We are going to miss our morning chats in the yard. We are going miss getting fresh romaine 🥬 lettuce, basil 🌿, fresh bread 🥖 from you.  We can’t believe you’re gone.  We really miss you!
I hope you saw my mom & dad and shared some espresso ☕️ together! We Love ❤️ You Tony!
We Miss You! Rest With All Your Angels!!
Watch Over All Of Us.  Send us a sign if we are doing something wrong when we make our sauce!😘❤️✨✨

Thank You, Nino, for  being sooo kind and loving towards my family💙💙💙. Your happy spirit ✨and warm energy will be missed!!! Thank you for making my grandparents smile😁! You always brought over the best bread🥖🥯🍞! Rest comfortably in Heaven😇, and keep watching over your Loved Ones!!! We’ll definitely miss you🙌🏽, but are grateful🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 to have known you! 

Love Always, Diana Avallone (Cathy & Mario’s Granddaughter)

Nino was always so friendly & trustworthy!!! 💙💙💙He was such a good friend, a person you could ask anything from and he would be there for you! We especially appreciated when he would come over and bring us  bread!!!
🥖 🍞😋.  He was such pleasant company, and his kind and warm presence will be greatly missed!😥 Say “Hi” to Grace for us. We miss you both, but we know that You will be guiding us from Heaven👼🏼🙏🏽👼🏼, every day.  Thank you for being in our lives, and for making it very memorable. God Bless You Forever!😇 Love Always, Cathy & Mario

Dear Tony,  
You will be greatly missed.  Such a sweet, humble, hard working man.   Always outside working in your garden in your white tank.  I will miss your gardening tips and our garden talks. You always had to check in with me about my tomatoes. I will especially miss your extra large zucchini’s.  Always a joke at my house.  You always made sure Joann brought me veggies and a tray of cookies. Rest In Peace.   I will always be here to help Joann and Anthony with love. 

We met one afternoon when our dogs engaged in a barking contest. After that we would chat every time I passed by about his wonderful plants especially the fragrant flowers he’d brought from Italy. It was one of the highlights of my day. We would share the bounty of our gardens. Tony would give me tomatoes and I’d give him pears. I will miss his friendly greeting, our chats, and his  friendship. Rest In Peace my friend. 

Daddy... MY FOREVER HERO 💕

Daddy I love you so much!  I’m happy that you are with mommy and are not suffering anymore. 

I love you SO SO SO much.  You have always been my MAIN MAN and that will continue.

You will always and forever be the forefront of everything I do.  We discussed so much and we were extremely close.  I LOVE YOU so much daddy!! I will forever think of you and how tough you are.  You set the bar high.  You always put others first before yourself.  I will be like you as much as possible but that is HUGE shoes to fill. 

Your work ethic and performance truly made me always strive for higher.  I sincerely would like to thank you for LOVING me as much and as hard as you did, that true and special unconditional love.  I knew whether I was right or wrong it did not matter...I was always right in your eyes and you completely had my back 24/7.  I always felt safe and secure.  

Please tell mommy I love and miss her, you know I love you DEEP and of course I miss you already.  
Daddy please continue to watch over me and guide me.  I know that no matter what you will always be here right by my side FOREVER.

Please make sure you and mommy are right there when it is Anthony’s turn and my turn to come.  Of course I want to be the first person you see.

I was able to spend your last day with you, just like mommy.  I really really can’t wait to see you both again.  Please keep tabs on Antony and I, as this will be very hard for the both of us.

Please continue to watch me and PLEASE be right there so I can see you first when I pass.

I REFUSE to say goodbye because it’s not goodbye at all.  It is “see you later.”

I LOVE YOU LIKE NO OTHER!!!
FOREVER and ALWAYS.  Gizmo and Snuggles LOVE YOU SO MUCH.  Please be there to greet them as well so we can all be together again one day. 

Thank you very much for setting the bar so high.  I will never settle for anything less.  I promise you...I really truly do!

Love Forever and Always,
Joann AKA “Daddies Little Girl”



To one of the sweetest, kindest, gentle man I know, who always  had a warm smile to greet you.  Many memories of warm, crispy bread, car rides to the flea market or dinners at the Sizzler. Fast forward to adult conversations about gardening  and dogs.  You will truly be missed. May you Rest In Peace and enjoy your birthday in Heaven 💛
