Dear Tony, We can't believe you are not with us anymore. No day goes by that we don't reminisce about all the wonderful times we had with you. I always told you you were my Knight in Shining Armor! You have been there for us always- through everything with us. Glenn could not have had a better friend that he could always count on and me too. I'm so glad we got together in Boston- we were so hopeful then. I truly miss not being able to pick up the phone and call you to get advice or to make me laugh when I'm sad. I know Eddie is right and you are in a great place now amongst your family and friends being comforted.
To Lisa, Christina, Nick, Eddie, Maryellen and Florence, Our hearts are broken too but rest assured Tony is busting chops up there just like the spirited, wonderful, outrageously talented, smart, handsome, fun- best guy in the whole world- that we all just can't bear to live without. Keep on Fishin until we meet again. Love,
Glenn & Mara

Words will never/ever even come close to expressing how much we miss you. We were so fortunate to have spent so many fun years with you, while you were in Chatham, and then these past few years with you in Florida. There will never be any words that anyone could say to erase the pain we feel. Its inconceivable, still, that you have left us. We can only hope that you are in a better, pain-free place. Until we meet again, it was an honor to call you "friend" and just know Tony -- that we will love you forever. Joe and Terri -- Nick, Gina and Marisa Richardella

Still can't believe you are gone, way to soon. You were a wonderful friend and a caring person. You said to remember all the memories we have shared, and there were certainly many of those. Only you could have the courage to drive the wrong way on the Brooklyn Bridge in a blizzard to get Marianne to her house closing on time. You were the CEO of my boat and that is why it always looked and ran at its peak. When Maddie saw your truck pulling up she knew it was going to be good times with you and Bodie. Rest in Peace Tony, you are no longer in pain. You will always be in our hearts and never be forgotten.

I had a very unique relationship with my Uncle Tony. We connected right away once I understood his sense of humor! He would always call me "Halle Moo Moo" whenever we would speak. He liked to tease me about a lot of different things. Uncle Tony would ask me if I had a boyfriend yet and I'd be like: "NO!" He would ask me to smell my ice cream, pretending that he wanted my opinion about whether it smelled good. (Part 1)

I would fall for it, and he would smoosh my nose in it! I will never forget that or his laugh. But I know that he loved me very much because he always told me so. I am so thankful for the many things that Uncle Tony did for our family. He fixed many things in our house and made us an awesome basement where I hang out a lot with my friends. He took us fishing in Islamorada and that was a lot of fun. I will never forget the time, Uncle Tony, Aunt Lisa, mommy and me were fishing near the bridge by Bud and Mary's and al of a sudden we heard and felt a big "BOOM!" (Part 2)

We thought it was a car that might have blown up on the nearby bridge, but when we turned around, we saw that it was the cap from one of Uncle Tony's motors on the boat! We were so lucky that no one got hurt and had a good laugh about it afterwards...way afterwards! I am so sad that Uncle Tony is gone. It's hard to even put it into words sometimes. I miss seeing him and hearing him but I will never forget him or what a great Uncle he was to me...I love you Uncle Tony..."Halle Moo Moo" (Part 3)

Dear Brother, I know your with Pops already and he is giving you the comfort you need - this came to me in a dream last night. My days have become quite empty and sad now not being able to chat with you for those brief moments at 5:30. But your spirit lives on in all of us who knew you well, and together we shall be strong by reminiscing the laughter, kindness and guidance you brought to the table. You will be missed. Love, Edward

My Sweet Bro,
As I said to you recently, whenever it would ring and I'd see the beautiful portrait of you and Bodie on my phone, my heart would soar, as I knew I'd have the chance to talk with you again...I will forever miss that. There are countless, wonderful memories we have shared and conversations we've had which I will cherish always. You have imparted great wisdom and kindnesses to those you've held dear and shown by example the power of love and gratitude. I love you Tony with all my heart...I hope you're fishing somewhere with Pops and shooting the breeze with "Bocci Galloop!" xoxoxoxo
