Tony, we spent the last 36 years creating a life together and raising our four beautiful daughters. You worked so hard, often without a word of complaint, to give us everything we needed. We had so much more to do together, and it just won’t be the same without you. I’ll carry you with me always, and I will miss you more than I can put into words.

Love your ‘darling wife’, Maria.

Dad, we still can’t believe we will never see you again. You were our protector, always doing everything you could to make sure we never went without. We know you lived your life working hard for us, and it breaks our hearts that you didn’t get to experience the joys that were ahead of you. You took so much pride in being the father of four daughters. Your strength, love and devotion shaped us, and we see pieces of you in each of us. You still had so much more to do, but we will continue to go through life honouring the legacy you leave behind. We love you so much, and we will miss you always.

Your girls, Stephanie, Olivia, Alessandra and Deanna.

To our father-in-law Tony. Thank you for welcoming us with open arms and treating us like one of your own. We admire the way you provided for your family. Everything you did was for them and it is a true reflection of the man you were. We will miss your humour, your advice, your want of our company and the chats over a beer or wine, no matter how early. We promise to look after Maria and the girls and will continue to follow the example you set. We will be forever grateful.

Love Nick, Anthony, Josef and Anthony.

To my dear son, Nino. My heart will never be whole again, but your love and memories will stay with me forever. Not a day will pass where I won’t think of you, miss your smile and wish we could have one more moment together.

Until we meet again my beautiful son. Love you forever, Mum.

With heavy hearts, we mourn a loss that has left us shattered. Life often brings unexpected challenges, but this one has been one of the hardest to face. Tony, your unwavering dedication to providing for your family will forever be remembered as a true testament of your love and commitment. Although you are no longer with us, your memory will live on in the stories we continue to share. Life took you from us too soon, but you were one of a kind—there will never be another brother and uncle like you. Love Frank, Mary, Lauren, Peter, Joseph, Nadia, Renee and Sam.

To our dear brother and uncle, Tony. The emptiness you have left behind is hard to put into words. We wish we could hear your voice or share one more laugh with you. We miss you dearly, but hold onto the moments, the love, and memories that made you so special. We promise to always be there for Maria and your girls. Until we meet again, always in our hearts, forever missed. Tina, Mario, Danielle, Michael, Vanessa, Jonny, Sarah and Matt.

Goodbye to our special brother, uncle and Great Uncle Tony. We never got to say goodbye but will always cherish the funny memories we shared. You never failed to make us laugh and we will never forget the vibrant energy you bought to every room. Thank you for always spoiling the kids with your time and hilarious tricks. St Antonio Pizza Day won’t be the same without you. You will be sadly missed but forever have a special place in our broken hearts.

Love always your sister Maria, Tino, Joe and Melissa and the Iandorio kids.

With heartfelt sadness, we say goodbye to my beloved brother-in-law, Tony. His kindness, warmth, and love for his family will forever be cherished. May his memory bring us strength and his love remain with us always. Forever missed, never forgotten. With love and deepest sympathy, Giuseppe Filleti.

Although it is difficult to see beyond the sorrow we feel today, we look back in memory of the stories we shared at your table to see comfort for tomorrow. Tony, you will forever be in our hearts. RIP.

Love your brother-in-law Joe Tiani, Carol and families.

Tony, it is hard to say goodbye to someone as kind and generous as you. Your heart was always open, your laughter always bright, and your generosity knew no limits. You touched so many lives with your friendship and selflessness, leaving us all better for having known you. Don and I will forever cherish our times around the dinner table, sharing good wine, great food, and even better company. Those moments will always remain in our hearts. Though you may be gone, your spirit will live on in the love and memories you’ve left behind. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Love always Don and Sandra Lopresti.

To our much adored brother-in-law and uncle. Tony, you went so suddenly there was no time to say goodbye, but the precious moments and times spent with you will never die. Gone are the happy days we shared together, but not the memories, they will last forever. Tony may God bless you always. Rest in peace. Love always, Leno, Maria and Dominic Tiani.

Our hearts are broken, and it’s hard to believe you are no longer with us. Your kindness and generosity touched us all, but it was your ability to make us laugh that we will miss most. We take comfort in knowing you will be reunited with Tony, watching over us all. Your presence will be deeply missed, and the joy you brought into our lives will never be forgotten.

Love, Rosina, Johnny, Anthony, and Francesca xxxx

Tony, you were more than just a brother-in-law and uncle, you were a cherished friend. We will treasure our last joyful moment spent together at our house, that will never be forgotten. You will forever remain in our hearts, missed deeply and always remembered. With all our love, Michael, Lisa and family.

Tony, it is with a heavy heart that we had to say goodbye to a beloved brother-in-law, best friend and uncle. Your kindness, laughter, and the bond we shared will always be cherished. The memories of our time together, the moments of joy, will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We are grateful for every moment we spent together and will miss you dearly. You left a memorable mark on our lives, and your memory will be a source of strength and comfort in the days ahead. May you find peace and rest in eternity, you will forever remain in our hearts. Love always David, Angela and family.

Dearest Uncle Tony, our hearts are broken as we say goodbye far too soon. You were more than an Uncle, you were a guiding light, a source of laughter, wisdom, and endless love. Your kindness and warmth touched all of us in ways we will forever cherish. The memories we shared will never fade, and your love will remain in our hearts always. We will miss you beyond words but find comfort in knowing that your spirit will live on in each of us.

Rest peacefully, Uncle Tony. You will never be forgotten.

With all our love, Nato, Anja Filleti and family, Melissa, Gerald Fimmano and family and Domenic, Anita Filleti and family xxx

Uncle Tony, no words can truly express how heartbroken we are. You were a wonderful uncle whom we cherished deeply, and we will forever treasure the moments we shared with you. The laughter, the stories, and especially the joy you brought to our children will always remain in our hearts. Your generosity and support will never be forgotten, and your spirit will live on in our hearts and in the countless beautiful memories we hold dear.

Love always Joseph, Cher, Michael, Tina, Daniel and Arielle Lopresti, Salvatore and Gesica Alvaro and families.
