Tony was an extraordinary person. His loss brings much sadness, but also a reminder that we need to cherish our friends and shared humanity every day of our brief lives.

Tony was a true role model, always full of passion, and a source of inspiration. He was the “big” man. He was outstanding, kind, generous, and magnanimous. Tony taught me lessons in giving. He gave himself fully, to his job, his colleagues, and he gave back to the community and the young generation. It was a pleasure for me to have known Tony and have worked with him reconstructing houses to those devastated by Katrina hurricane in New Orleans, or in planning big events such as the FIRST Robotics at Javits. I will miss the big man!
