I am deeply saddened to hear that Anthony passed away. Just 6 months ago when my dad passed away on November 26, 2019, Anthony did the honors of taking care of my dad. My dad who was in the fruit and produce business for 43 years was long time friends with Anthony. My dad was the successful owner of Sal's Fruit Tree for 43 years, Anthony used to deliver Coca-Cola. Anthony met my dad when he had his store in Copiague. 6 months ago I remember shaking Anthony's hand, I remember Anthony firmly grasped my hand and I instantly knew he had a loving soul and cared deeply about my dad and my family. I still cannot believe I am 16 years old and just within last year and this year we lost two special people. Words cannot express how deeply Anthony will be missed. He had a good heart and a kind soul. May he rest in peace and enter the eternal light where he will be no longer in pain. I know my dad is up in heaven with you. If Massapequa Funeral Home, specifically the South Chapel needs anything I am here to help. My dad looked absolutely amazing in his casket and I am honored I had the privilege to meet Anthony. Anthony rest in peace, you will never be forgotten.

So very sorry to hear of Anthony’s passing. He always had a smile when you saw him in town. But mostly I will remember him for the kindness he showed my family when my Father passed and then when my Mother passed. He treated us like family, was respectful and we appreciated it so much. Deepest sympathy to his family.

Many of my very close friends have known Anthony for many years, but I first met him when my husband died last year. I could not have asked for a more kind and supportive person to help me and my family navigate the loss of my husband. I am so very sorry that he has passed and for all the kind deeds he has done for so many families, I pray he is at peace. Thank you Anthony.

Anthony was a good man. When my wife Patti died he was a tremendous support to me and my family. He helped during and after. I would often see him in the mornings at the Massapequa Perk in town and we would talk. Anthony was a calming, friendly presence that will be missed by all who knew him. I send my prayers to his wife and family.

I was very saddened to hear of Anthony’s passing. He was a wonderful man. He handled the passings of my mother, my father, and my sister for my family. He treated us with such tenderness and empathy. He always made those very sad times a little easier on us. He will never be forgotten by us. People wont always remember what you say to them but they will remember how you make them feel. Anthony was the perfect example of this. His smile and warmth will be in our hearts, and our prayers will be with his family at this time and the difficult times in the future. Sometimes life just isn’t fair.

I am so very sorry to hear this awfully sad news. Anthony handled my husband's passing last June in a truly consolable, thoughtful and caring manner. He was truly blessed to be in the profession he worked in, as he did it so well. My husband was the Sr. Drum Sgt. of the NYPD Pipe Band and his funeral was just one our family will never forget. Anthony was so comforting and consoling through this very sad time in my family's life. My heart goes out to his family! I know some of our Pipe band members will be honoring him at his send off.. He will truly be missed in the Massapequa Park community! May he rest in peace!

Anthony and I went to OLL together and he was so nice. Five years ago my mom passed and Anthony came to my house to bring my mom to Massapequa Funeral Home. He asked what I needed and I said "get Monsignor Lisante to say the mass." As he left he yelled "hey Col I got Father Lisante!!!" I will always be grateful to "Tony" for his help and his kindness.
