Tony was a true entrepreneur at heart, always driven by new ideas and hard work. In the last few years of his life, Tony found special meaning in his work with Catholic Charities, where he was able to give his time and talents to helping others.

Tony had a lifelong love for antique cars, motorcycles, and a remarkable ability to work with his hands. There was rarely a project he wouldn’t take on or something he couldn’t find a way to fix. He was happiest when he was busy—building, creating, repairing, or helping someone else with a project.

But more than anything, Tony will be remembered for the life he built and the people he loved. He and his wife, JoAnne, shared a lifetime together, having been together since they were 11 and 12 years old. Through all of life’s seasons, they grew up together, built a family, and shared countless memories. Their life together was a testament to the love and commitment they shared.

Tony took great pride in his family and cherished the time spent with those closest to him. He loved his sons deeply and was incredibly proud of the men they had become. His grandchildren brought him a special kind of joy, and he treasured the time he spent with them. He had a way of making people laugh and leaving his mark wherever he went. His generosity, determination, and love for his family will live on in the many memories he leaves behind.

Calling hours will be held Wednesday, September 16th, from 3:00–7:00 PM at Farrell-Ryan Funeral & Cremation Services. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated Thursday, September 17th, at 10:30 AM at Our Mother of Sorrows Church. Interment will follow at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Catholic Charities in Tony’s memory.
