Tony leaves behind his wife Ellyn O'Riordan, daughter Heidi Martin, stepsons James & Michael Ricketts, and grandchildren.
Tony was born in New York, the son of a merchant seaman and cinematographer. He served honorably in the U.S. Army on many fronts, including Vietnam. Tony's service continued as a police officer in Hialeah, Florida for 30 years with numerous commendations.
Tony was deeply loved and will be greatly missed around the table, as he was such a wealth of knowledge. We are so blessed and honored to have been able to share our lives with such a wonderful man.
The celebration of life service will be held at the Beaches Chapel at 1:00 pm on January 19th, 2024.
