David Chianese wrote a sympathy message

“So sorry to hear this. I worked with Tony at Sperry around 1968. When I left Sperry and took a job at North American Philips his dad ran the car park. Tony made sure his dad looked after my car. I hooked up with Tony again when Sperry was about to shut down. Great guy, R.I.P. David Chianese”
