Tony grew up in Everett, the second of 3 children.  It was there that he met his wife, Gloria.  He and Gloria raised their 5 children in Malden where Tony was a barber for 70 years.  He was a beloved Malden resident “Tony the Barber” as he was readily known. 

For the last 5 years, he and Gloria were residents of Linden Ponds in Hingham. It was there on August 15, that

Tony passed away peacefully at age 96 surrounded by his family.   It is a true testament to how much you are loved by others, when the staff  are in tears when you pass.

 He is survived by his 5 children; Michael, Dean, Paul and his wife Naomi, Maryann Tkaczuk and her husband Richard, and Patti Lowenhaupt and her husband Manuel.

Tony was truly loved by all that knew him.  So many would stop by the barber shop to chat, play chess , or just some good-natured banter, it was all free with a haircut.  He was a religious man with a very strong Catholic faith, and would minister to all who were interested. He was truly one of a kind.

He was loved by so many and will be missed by all.
