Devito family, we are so sorry to hear of Tonys passing. He was a sweetheart. He reminded me so much of my father. We enjoyed talking to him and listening to his stories when he sat outside on the porch. He was a fantastic neighbor. He will be missed. May God give you all strength and comfort during this difficult time. If there is anything we can do for you please let us know.

We remain impressed at his well lived life and hope his genes and go-with-the-flow attitude get us all to our 100th year – with his style and grace.

Many great memories of Grandma Lucy talking about her children. Especially “My Tony” stories that all the rest of the kids would say “ What about Me”. He lived a full and great life and let’s hope we all can live hat long before joining with everyone over a great Italian meal in heaven. RIP. Love, Irene & Gerry
