Tony was born in South Philadelphia and graduated from South Philadelphia High School in 1948. He was an active athlete and photographer. After high school, he joined the U. S. Air Force, and during his service in Korea he met Paula through her brother. Tony and Paula were married in November 1956 at St. Brigid’s Church in New York City. They settled in Philadelphia where they raised their family. Tony worked as an assistant clothes designer while attending night school at the Drexel Institute of Technology studying architecture. In 1968, he was awarded his bachelor’s degree in architecture.
He became a licensed architect in Pennsylvania and worked as an architect for several companies, including his own partnership. His final job was working for the City of Philadelphia. In 1995, Tony and Paula retired to the Villages in Florida and spent 20 wonderful years together in retirement. While in retirement, Tony was an active softball player for many years and member of Korean War & Korea Defense Service Veterans, The Villages (FL), Chapter 169. In 2018, he moved to Wichita to be close to his family. We appreciate the great people at Catholic Care Center and Harry Hynes Hospice for the care they gave him.
