So sorry to hear of Tony's passing. He was the go to guy for all things IT and the road block for buying equipment, always needed someone else to approve that laptop purchase! Always enjoyed talking with him and his crew! Thoughts and Prayers from CA.

I met Tony when he began his career with The Michaels Organization and we continued working together until his retirement. He always went out of his way to help with any problems I was having with my computer in his usual style, grousing that he and his staff were busy, but he always came through! I missed him on his departure but we did see each other on occasion and he was always welcoming with a big smile a good handshake and a solid pat on the back! Occasionally, we would have dinner, Tony, Terry Jim, Nancie and myself and that was followed by karaoke! Tony LOVED singing his favorite Johnny Cash tunes! I will always be reminded of him whenever a Cash tune comes on t h e radio!!

My Dad was a wonderful, gentle and kind man. I will miss him deeply. I will always think of him every morning when I drink my chock full o nuts coffee because that was his favorite. I remember playing what we called ‘puzzle races’ with him when I was a child. He would hurriedly put the pieces together on his puzzle except the last piece he would pretend didn’t fit and he would do an earthquake motion so that the pieces would fly out. He did this purposefully so that I would have a chance to finish my puzzle first. Just like he did in ‘puzzle races’ he looked out for me in life. He was always there for me no matter what life threw at me and I will never forget it. I loved him so much. Thank you everyone for your beautiful memories.

He was a strong, kind cousin. He was blessed with 4 beautiful children. Deepest sympathy to them and all who are grieving.

What beautiful comments. I did not know Tony well, but he is father to my beautiful daughter-in-law, Jennifer, who he helped Janet raise to be one of the kindest people i have ever known. I am saddened for all his family and friends for their loss.

Very sad to hear of Tony's passing - I worked for him in the IT Department at TMO, on more than one occasion he went out of his way to help me with various things, and would stop by just to say 'good job' - I'll always be grateful for those things he did, and I'll never forget him. RIP Tony.

Tony P was a man you never forget. He had a great smile and sense of humor and a great laugh. I loved that man like an uncle or big brother. There was never a dull moment in the IT dept when I was there and Tony was always there to back me up if I needed it or to put an arm around me and say good job. Of all the bosses I've had there are only 3 that were worth working for and remembering and Tony P was number one in my book. I will miss him immensely.

I feel a great loss over Tony’s passing. he was one of the first people I met back in early 1 Stow days. (almost same time as meeting Teri) Tony was the king of technology and he made things happen. He was not a push over but Teri softened Tony and together they were a fairy tale couple. Tony was really a softy and when he laughed, he laughed hard. I loved getting together with them in our backyard sharing cigars, adult beverages and stories. Good times! We will really miss him! Ron and Rita Hansen

I worked for Tony from 2011 until his retirment in the IT department. I was asked to come in to interview in early 2011 for a spot on his team. He had Jamie sit me in a small “conference room” next to his office. When it was his time to talk to me and ask questions, he yelled with this loud New York voice from the other room expecting the conversation to go that way back and forth. So I answered in kind trying to hold back laughter. I thought to myself, this guy is rough!. I turned the job down asking for a permanent position. Told him to call me when he has something concrete. He laughed and said “sure thing”. 5 months later I got the call and the rest is history. Tony was a one of a kind tough exterior, with a kind soul, kind of boss. He took care of his people 100% and I have the utmost respect for him. I will miss him dearly. I can never listed to Johnny Cash without thinking of the REAL man in black, Tony P! RIP buddy. BANG!
