Dear Jackie and Family,
I knew you all since I was a little girl who lived next door to “Aunt” Ella and across the street from you.
Tony was always a good neighbor and friend to my family. He and my Dad were close friends. I think we were all close. Tony’s jovial personality and genuine care for his friends and neighbors endeared him to all. He became synonymous with Broome’s Island.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Tony was a great guy who will be missed by many.
Love to you all,
Jeanine
