We remember Tony from all his help at the Lewes Senior Center.
We attended several of his Wedding Anniversaries at the Senior Center.
We know his wife Jean and Niece Marie who was their flower girl
at their wedding. Tony did a lot at the Senior Center and may have
been the oldest Veteran there.
We will miss him,
Jim and Linda Mecke
It sounds like Mr. D'Amico was an amazing man! My thoughts & prayers are with his wife, Joe & Mary Beth & their family & the entire D'Amico family. May God bring you peace & comfort.

I'm happy that I was able to visit with Uncle Tony shortly before his passing. First time I ever saw him with a moustache, and it looked great on him! Fortunate to have lived around the corner from Aunt Jean, Uncle Tony and the "boys" growing up and I have a lifetime of memories; good, bad and the ugly (especially when Joe and I were running into the house and my arm went through the storm door window) I was more concerned about hightailing it out of there before Uncle got home then the blood! I'm not sure if I was ever forgiven for that one! 😉
I also have fond memories of the times our families spent at Ocean Gate, but not when Michael or Tony, (forget which one) was jumping on the bed and put a hole in the ceiling, yikes!
Uncle Tony sure did mellow over the years, I think it was when he had grandkids, they were his pride and joy.
So, for now it's goodbye, and God speed Uncle until we meet again in Heaven. Hope you're enjoying a good cigar and head massage (more childhood memories).
Love you,
Donna, Joe & Amelia
Loved seeing that young man on the bike at Lewes Senior Center. Enjoyed my times talking with him, about various things, but specifically WWII and his service to our nation. Tony was a very proud person, you could tell. I couldn't even get him his WWII veteran hat from the WWII museum in New Orleans without him paying me for it. Matter of fact, he insisted. Very fond of that young man.
Rest well comrade.
You are missed.
Tony was a true gentleman. He was loved by all at the Lewes Senior Activity Center and he will forever be missed.
