Vivian and family,
My deepest sympathy to you and the family on Tony’s passing. I have many fond memories of the Dureski family growing up as a child and into adulthood. My son Ted will always remember Tony for offering him a summer job at the Lockport Hotel and generously giving him a ten dollar bill,
May he rest in Peace.
