Tony was proud of his achievements on the field, and was honored to be inducted into the Winchester Sports Foundation Hall of Fame in 2004. Tony was also an avid Boston sports fan with a special affinity for the Red Sox.

Tony continued his education at Wentworth Institute and Northeastern University, earning a degree in Civil Engineering. He also served in the U.S. Army from 1953-1955.

Tony cherished family above all else and was a constant source of support and guidance for all. He had an easy-going manner and was able to put people at ease with his unique combination of wisdom and humor.
