I was so sorry to hear that Tony had passed away. He was a great guy and a stand up boss. It seemed like every time I went into Happy Foods on the Highway I would run into him. I have many fond memories of him when we were working in the 014th District. He always went out of his way to back up his people. He will truly be missed by many. Sending thoughts and prayers to his family.

He was a wonderful man who epitomized dedication and service. I was fortunate to have known him both as a neighbor and as a fellow police officer. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Thank you Tony for all that you gave us. RIP
