I have been thinking of Tony's family all morning. I regret I can not attend the service and give my condolences in person. I did not know him well but I know today is darker with out his light. He was a good man and you didn't have to know him well to know that. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and all who loved and knew him.

Tony and worked together at Domaine Hudson wine bar & eatery, which I founded in 2005. Tony was one of our initial employees and he did a fantastic job. His knowledge of and passion for fine wine was inspiring. Tony was completely in his element explaining fine wine and foods to our best customers. He always brought a smile to my face as well as to his coworkers and our customers. You will be missed my friend. Peace.

Quick with a joke or a light of your smoke, hopefully you finally found a better place to be. While we selfishly wish we had you for just a bit longer, we all know this world was never good enough. You will always walk among us. RIP my friend. My sincerest condolences to the Russo family and Tony's Wilmington family.

In this life, all of us, sooner or later face difficulty and hardship, pain and sorrow. We try to hold on to our children but eventually, time or death takes them from us. No matter how tight we clutch them to our hearts. Remembering To my, full of fun and joy. Tony will always be in our hearts, and all of his family and friends.

With deepest sympathy.

One of my favorite moments was what he did for me on my Birthday one year, making it one of my most special bdays. That was Nov 25 years ago. He will always be remembered by me as one of the most genuinely kind people I have ever known. What I wouldn't give to spend one more day with him.

Bob and Lynne,
So sorry to hear of Tony's passing. In times like this we can still hold on to memories. To paraphrase a quote from Leo Buscaglia: "We know for certain we never lose those people we love, even in death. They are always with us, in our thoughts, actions and decisions we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We can find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love." Please accept our sincere condolences on your loss.
