Obituary of Anthony J. Tirelli

Anthony Joseph Tirelli 

“ANT”, “Big A“, “Baldie”, “Tony T”

Of New York and Florida, but really New York, unexpectedly crossed over to the Golden Roads at 12:34AM on Tuesday June 13th.   He was a lover of life, an authority of common sense, and he had the Midas Touch .  There was nothing he couldn’t fix, build, or create.  He was a hopeless romantic who adored his wife Bobbie-Jo. He was the greatest father, and taught us all so much.  If you met him- you’d never forget him. He lived to be social, and if you spent any time with him you were left with an everlasting impression that just can’t be erased.  He made it known he worked for “God” and had no problems recruiting others for open positions.  Anthony is predeceased by his parents Anna and Frank Tirelli, his Son Robert Christopher and his “brother” Giulio Ferraro and niece Raina. He is survived by His beloved wife Bobbie Jo Tirelli, daughter Anna-Marie Tirelli, fur daughter Harley Baskin, Sisters Mary Jane Pica and late husband Joseph Pica, sisters, Frances Farano and Iris Ferraro, Brother Frank Tirelli and sister in law Vhem Tirelli, In Laws John and Carol Blumfield, and Jackie and Brian Prisco, Grandchildren Justin Gumble, Alana, Samantha and Joshua Hessinger, and Great Grandsons Anthony and Robert Gumble.  Cousin Al Chiovetta (Putz) and wife Pat,   numerous other cousins, nieces, nephews and Tons of Friends — Tony is a Legend and he will be Sorely missed by all.  Live on in Paradise Big A, Fat Tony, Tone Bone, Daddy!
