He loved to make people laugh or gag, whatever tickled him to get a laugh, and it was easy to laugh with him. His forever poke in the ribs, just to make you jump, many will remember those, oh yeah he would be grinning and laughing. That little squeeze on your shoulder, his way of letting you know he cared. He had a big heart and would do anything for anyone, even with his last dollar, he would figure something out to help. One of his favorite saying when times were tough, “things will work out, it will be ok” and it usually did. Anthony was a mechanic for most of his working life. Some would say he was a great mechanic, and that they learned a lot from him, his sons included. With his love of cars and fixing them up, he was known to many people over the years. This great man made a huge impact on most people who got to meet him in his life time. He will be remembered, loved, and missed so much; by so many people. Especially his sweetheart and soulmate, his loving wife Mary.Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Sweeny’s Funeral Home and Crematorium, Yarmouth.
