Anthony G. Wilk

Tony was born at St.Michaels Hospital in Newark,N.J. on February 22,1946. He grew up in East Newark,N.J. and graduated from Harrison High School and then attended Rutgers University where he obtained his 2 year degree in addition to various trade certificates.

Tony met Andrea in May of 1972 in East Newark,N.J., they married on March 28,1974 in Las Vegas,Nevada. They went on to spend the next 47 years building their lives together, raising their children and watching their grandchildren grow.

They moved to Pembroke Pines,FL in 1978 and Tony started a 20 year career with IDAB Inc and then went on to become a terminal supervisor for the Port of Miami until he retired in 2009. Tony was always dedicated to his family and making sure he always provided the best for them. He had a larger than life personality and truly lived his life just like his favorite song, "My Way". He enjoyed spending time traveling to see family and friends, having a good time, doing projects around his house, teaching his grandchildren the finer points in texas hold em and darts and always challenging them to use their heads. He also enjoyed going to the casino and winning big or just simply relaxing in his favorite chair watching "His" T.V. especially on a Saturday when The Gators were playing.

Tony is survived by his wife (Andrea), his children (CariAnn, Anthony and Diana), his grandchilren (Lindsey, Andrea, Kaitlynn, Matthew, David, Zachary, Andrew and Erick), his extended family from N.J., his childhood friends, his 23rd St. family and many other great friends he met along the way.
