So sorry for your loss. Toni were classmates for 12 years.
We want to send our love and prayers to all of the family. I have so many memories of Anthoney Gale that leave me smiling and laughing. He was always the life of the party. He will be missed greatly.
I’ll never forget Tony telling us about the prayer list he took to Rome. Our brother-in-law was among the names because he was dealing with cancer.
Tony and I worked together for many years and there was never a dull moment. Helen and children our prayers are with you.
Tony was a wonderful neighbor and friend to my mom Anne and her sister, Kay. He was such a ‘giver’ always offering to help anyone in need. Everyone knew Tony! I cannot say enough about his kind and generous spirit. And what a storyteller! We will miss those chin-wags on the porch with him. We send our very heartfelt condolences to Helen and family.
Gerald enjoyed playing football at SAHS with Anthomy. Though we have not seen him for many years we have great memories of dances and parties in high school. He had many friends all his life. Rest in peace.

May Tony Tantillo be so greeted and welcomed by both The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit, along with all of the angels and saints in heaven. May he be so reunited and embraced by his son Kyle and everyone that so loved him and all that he loved that went before him. May he and Kyle dwell around God’s enchanted holy throne as they look down from heaven to watch over Mrs. Helen Tantillo, Terri, Marcus, and everyone in his family. May God carry, hold, keep, protect, bless, and love both Helen, Terri, Marcus, and everyone in the Tantillo family. Always and Forever in the palm of his hand. God bless and love The Tantillo family.

Our precious neighbors on 19th St. when we moved back from Germany! What an honor and pleasure to know them! May Anthony RIP! God Bless All the family!
So many sweet memories of this precious neighbor of ours. Frankie really enjoyed the countless conversations you had at the corner post of our back yards. Frankie has shared so many funny things. It was so sad how he and Helen’s hearts hurt for the loss of their son Kyle. And so many times when Helen would come down to get him cause he was gone way too long. You will definitely be missed but we know it’s a glorious time for you & you are completely healed. Prayers for all your family during this most difficult time. Love The Joines Family
