Anthony "Tony" Silvio Magri
Age 61 of West Palm Beach, FL passed away on February 11, 2021. He was born in Bronxville, N.Y., raised in Westchester County, & lived in Florida. He moved cars between FL & NY, had dump trucks & a demolition hauling business. He had several used car lots through the years & a few hot rod shops. He was an incredible salesman who sold cars and RV’s.
Tony was an avid car enthusiast. There was no one in the car community that didn’t know of Tony and his cars. He turned his passion for cars into a business. Out of a little 2 car garage turned out works of art and show winners. He loved to build and fabricate things. Tony’s list of talents are a mile long, but he will always be remembered, 1st and foremost, for the amazing things he created with cars. He was a “super genius”. He could fix anything except a broken heart. He loved his family, friends, cats & cars. Cars were his passion.
Tony is survived by his loving family: wife, Robin; daughter, Samantha; brother, Joe; mother, Deloris.

I moved to Florida and had no family or friends down here. I met Tony at a car show and he quickly became my first friend. Tony showed me the ropes of the Florida car show scene and introduced me to all the other Knuckleheads down here. Tony helped me and taught me so much with my projects. Tony will live on in all of us as he made such a positive impact on so many of our lives. He will be missed.

I came to Florida in 2013. Tony at that time was living with my beautiful cousin Robin.
Robin introduced me to Tony for the first time. I was hooked, he was very smart, funny and I could instantly see how much he loved Robin and Samantha.
Tony represented old school car mechanics and would give you no nonsense advice with anything related to a car.
If you were one of the lucky to know Tony as a true friend then you knew you had a friend for ever.
I will miss my dear friend and cousin Tony Silvio Magri, if God needed an update to he's chariot Tony would trick the heck out of it.
God Bless 💜

There are no words that will heal, no words that will take the pain away. My heart is breaking for my sister’s broken heart.
Tony loved her beyond what any words can describe. Keep his love in your heart & let that be your fuel to keep on. I love you so much❤️

Tony was my Hero, and not mine alone but my special memory is when we danced to the song “Hero” at my daughter’s Sweet Sixteen Party. I can still see us dancing. And I will always keep that memory in my heart
Tony was easy to love
I will miss him always.

Tony was an awesome, funny guy! All the times coming over after school with Sam he’d always make me laugh. He always treated me as one of his even showed me how to change my brakes. I’ll never forget all the funny sarcastic comments and jokes because that made him who he was. You will be missed Tony!!!!!

I have so many memories of my cousin Tony. It is so hard to pick just one . One of my funniest memories was the Halloween I dress as the wicked witch pretending to be a dummy sitting on the front porch and Tony running around the corner with a chainsaw chasing trick or treaters down the block.Needless to say the police came and no one treat or treated there the rest of the night.
Miles may have kept us apart but you have always been in my heart. I will miss you Tony.❤️

I met Tony as a salesperson at West Palm Beach Kia. We quickly became good friends. Over a period of over 10 years he became a brother! My heart has a hole as a result of losing my brother. Tony I love you. I will never stop expecting to hear you come in cursing and yelling. I will miss your laugh. I am crying as I write this. The world is a lesser place because Tony Magri left it.

I was in the same circle of car guys that Tony was in NY. Funny that we never really hung out together then. Years later in Florida I met Tony & Joe to find out we knew all the same people. Tony was always a super guy. RIP my friend.
