We will always remember Tony and Claire. Their friendship remains a treasure that we hold deep in our hearts. Thank you, Tony for being Woody's best buddy during those wonderful Little League years. Remembering those games brings joy to our lives.

Tony was my friend for many years. During the last several years we have kept in contact by telephone. It was great keeping our friendship alive with these weekly chats. We always relived those Little League games and talked about all the great players we enjoyed coaching. We talked about each others family and also solved the worlds problems. Always on the same page. "Tone" was a good man. I miss him. I will always miss him and cherish his friendship. Shirley and I send our love and condolences to all the family. We know you will miss Tony. We will as well.
Your friend, Woody

I have known the Yadron family for 50 years, beginning with my kindergarten (through college) best and long time friend Caryn. "Tone" and my father "Woody" were side-by-side on the Harvey little league field for many years as they coached together and Caryn's and my brother played on first Romba Bros and then 1st National Bank teams. Our mothers sat in the bleachers together throughout those summer games. I remember Claire taking her stress relieving walks on the outside of the back field during all the tense close overtimes. It was serious competition. Those were amazing days when we children ran around the playground without any fears. I love the Yadron family and have so many fond memories of "Tone" ... such a good man, and loving father. My heart goes out to all of the family, especially Claire...thinking of you all in this moment of sorrow.
