Mr Petroro(Tony) always had a smile on his face, waving to us from next door. He never hesitated to ask how we were. It was obvious his love for family, as everyone would gather at his home on Sundays. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time. Erik and Leslie

Tony, we loved you and we will miss you!
Always quick with a smile and an engaging story. You welcomed my brother into your family and for that I will always be thankful. I am thankful because along with him you welcomed us.
Raising and sharing a scotch with you was an honor.
Breaking bread over the dinner table was an event.
There are so many things I could recount and yet the most wonderful thing about you is the family you created.
We love Jean, Ro, Val, Gina and Guy.
Thank you for loving us and letting us be a part of that.
Dan & Stephanie
