May 2, 1948 – July 12, 2011
Our New York choreographer from Herculaneum was immortalized in the Tony Award Play, A Chorus Line (1975). Tony traveled the world and brought pieces of the world and Broadway back to Missouri on his visits. His advanced degrees in education came from his travels from the St. Louis Muny after graduating from St. Pius to St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Turkey, Japan, Europe, Machu Picchu, an ashram in India, from his work, and from his insatiable curiosity.
Tony’s death from cancer at 63 tore a huge hole in his friends’ hearts! No one lived and loved with more laughter.
