Andy sorry for loss.
from: Neil Oleson	on: 11-16-2023

I have known Ant for many years. From hanging around the playgrounds where there was a game of one sport or another to high school. I smile when I think of the time he chased Maureen H. and I through a snowed in parking lot in a car scaring the heck out of us. Then him rolling out of the car to show us who it was. I am so sorry to you, Nick, and the rest of Ant's family. May he rest in peace.

Evelyn and Andrew, I am sorry to hear of Anthony's passing. Please extend my sympathy to the rest of the family. I have many memories of our skating days at Noel Field. God Bless!

Terrible news to see Tony's name appearing on this page. As a contemporary of his brother Andrew and sister Evelyn, as well his membership in the Berkshire family of sports, his loss is at several levels. To his family, no words can console. But this can be said, in my life, I've not met a finer "kid," young man, and gentlemen, ever! It was an honor to have played ball with Tony, and to experience his friendship and "that smile" over the many years of knowing him. To his son, "an awful lot of guys loved your Dad...feel very proud!" To his wife and family, my deepest condolence and sincere prayer's. To the soul of Tony, "God-speed on your way home Buddy!"
