Anthony Ruggiero Obituary

Thinking of you.

So much has changed the boys are all grown, some starting families of their own. You are thought of often and missed. Keep watching over your "boys" you taught them all well

Anthony, seven years...miss you and love you! See you when I get there!

Well bro it's been six short years since you've gone. I think about you daily. I miss you and love you. See you when I get there!

Dearest Ant,

Just because I haven't written to you here lately does not mean that you are not on my mind. In fact, I think about you and miss you dearly each and every day. Life is hard for me and just seems to get more difficult all the time. Often I wish we could switch places, as I would welcome the Glory of Heaven right now!

You should know that Anthony has grown into quite an admirable young man. He is so handsome, thoughtful and kind. Although he didn't fulfill your dream that he become a major league baseball player some day, he is in his sophomore year of college and works hard for the money he earns when not studying. He even came to see me in Bayonne twice over the past year. You'd surely be proud!

Please give mom a big hug from me! Aunt Mildred, Aunt Mary and Dad, too, please. Missing you always, and hoping to see you soon.

Your sis, Margaret

Anthony, I've been missing you so much lately. Just yesterday I came across a sweatshirt that I took from your apartment, once you were gone. I have it here now and your scent still lingers. I haven't washed it and never will. It is probably one of the last shirts you wore. I hold it close and think of you, and I cry and cry some more. I wish you were here to comfort me. I love you and miss you so very much, but I thank Our Lord that you are at peace with Him in heaven. You are always in my thoughts and prayers, my dearest baby brother. XOXOXOXO

Uncle Anthony you will be missed by all...you had so many people who love/loved you! Christmas Eve was your holiday and hope you know how many tears were shed... I hope you have found the peace you longed for in heaven with grandma! I know I have another guardian angel watching over me. I love you!

This is our first Christmas without you and a very difficult one for me as you can imagine, Ant. We had a nice time last night with Anthony & shared a few happy memories of you. I will love you and miss you all the days of my life baby brother! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Have a "MERRY CHRISTMAS" in heaven brother! I love you!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

May you rest in peace.

Tony, ( mini me )you were a shining star that touched my life and it was a honor being your friend. Even tho we lost touch though the years, I never lost touch with the memories we shared and the wealth of knowledge you gave me in life and the car business. All too often, we look back and wonder... What if?? I will miss you my friend. R.I.P. and may God always keep you by his side.

RIP Tony any prayers for peace from our Lord.

Tony you were an amazing man. I looked at you as a member of my family. No matter what the problem you would always try your best to help me fix it. That's all you cared about was the success of others and that's what made you so special. I'll never forget the great times we had on and off the diamond. It's gonna be hard to get through this but when I do I will do my best to make you proud. Keep living up there tony, I loved you and you will be greatly missed.

Tony you will be missed..We love you and thank you for always being so kind to Christopher. He always liked "canning" with you. He would always come home laughing. Thanks for that Tony..Love The Kowalski's

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

Anthony was a wonderful big brother to me...I'll never forget our summers together with Dad and Geri in Keyport...may he have eternal rest in Heaven...

we are so sorry for your loss. He was a great guy. We will remember him sitting at basketball games, always encouraging all the kids. He could always be heard yelling, "Way to go kid!" Sincerely, The Boice's
