IN LOVING MEMORY ANTHONY PASONE JR. WHO PASSED AWAY 1 MONTH AGO TODAY OCTOBER 26, 1985 He will never be forgotten, he will always be in the hearts of many who knew him, especially mine, for he was my boy friend, will always love him and never forget him. He was a very good man, a very quiet and soft spoken man. He was very loving, always ready to help someone out, he was well known by his very warm, pleasant smile he wore. I'm sure he will be missed by his very close friends from Mutz's Bar, they were all like the brotherhood there- also by Jim McCarthy's Tavern on the hill, Thursday night dart league and by Shenanigans of Mountaintop.

Sadly Missed By Father, Sister Cat, Brother John, Niece Danielle, Girlfriend Paula.
