We were so sorry to read of Tony's passing in the Berwyn Life. Tony was one of my customers when he worked at Motorola and I worked at Walter H Brooke. It was such a surprise to learn he was also our neighbor. Another surprise is that he was also a friend of another close friend of ours. We will miss waving to him as he came out of the garage and seeing him taking his walks around Berwyn. Our sympathy to Theresa and all of the family.

Dearest Theresa and Family:

What fun we had when we worked with you and Tony on the USS San Juan Reunion. He was a great sailor when we both sailed the Pacific together during WWII. Your husband was a true war hero, as he was awarded 6 battle stars for his participation in sea battles from Philippines to Tokyo Bay. He took great pride in his liberation duties to free US and British POWs thruout Japan at the end of the war. Hail to Tony Zanghi as a member of the Greatest Generation. A true Panther shipmate, wonderful husband and super dad.
