Peacefully surrounded by family at home. Beloved husband of 59 years to Lynne. Loving father of the late Eric (Lauren), and Kriston (Michelle). Devoted grandfather of Logan (Ashley), Skylar (Ashton), Ryan (Sam), and the late Jeremy. Dear brother of the late Lorenza (Julio), Valentino (Maria), and Sylvio (Ann), and brother-in-law of Barbara Zufelt. Will be deeply missed by his many nieces and nephews in Italy and Canada. Tony worked at Belden (formerly General Wire & Cable) for 55 years, and will be missed by all his former co-workers.

We were very sorry to hear about our friend, Tony's passing. We knew Tony from our daily walks past the house. Tony was always cheerful and eager to talk about the things that mattered most to him...his family (here in Canada and those in Italy), the birds, the neighbourhood, his travels (esp. the Bellagio in Vegas), his work, just to name a few. We were also the lucky recipients of his beloved homemade Italian wine, which he would go into the house to fetch, nicely packaged for our walk home. Towards the end, still out for his walks in Peace Park, he was still cheerful and even more grateful speaking about the rich life he had. Rest in peace, Tony. We will miss you.
I met Tony on my walks in peace park with my dog. He was always fishing just below the bridge...he would have a treat for Lou, and a good story for me...I always looked for him every time I walked through the park or on his street...some people leave behind smiles.. he sure did.
My condolences to your family. Thinking of you all. I met him once and he offered me a bottle of his wine. I'm sure you have many good memories to cherish.
Lynne and family. So sorry to hear of Tony's passing. Our sincere condolences to you all.
My condolences to Lynn, Kriston and all of the family on the loss of your husband and father. I so enjoyed working with Tony for many years. He was a great guy and I am proud to call him a friend.
Thinking of you Lynn & Lauren & Family at this sad time. Memories are forever.
Lynne, Kris and families.....Tony's work ethic and knowledge was first-hand over the many years at Belden. I was very fortunate to continue to learn from him directly over the years. There was nothing he wouldn't do for anyone or any worker. Our condolences are the least we can do for the Family.
Our deepest condolences go out to the family of Antonio "Tony" Spagnolo. The Cimetta Family
Lynne and family, we are so sorry to hear of the passing of Tony. He always had a smile on his face and was ready for a chat. Cherish the memories. Nancy and Tony Bassutti

My condolences to all of you on the loss of this sweet, extremely devoted family man, who just happened to always find the time to make the most amazing wine ever. The last time I spoke with him was shortly after Eric's passing, where we shared stories, lots of tears and hugs. Of course, at the end of our visit, he insisted I take a bottle of wine. That was Tony <3 May all the wonderful memories you made together over the years provide comfort during this difficult time.

Dearest Lynne, I am so sorry to learn of Tony’s passing. What a wonderfully kind smile and jovial greeting he always gave me whenever I would see you both out walking. I always think of Tony when I look at the linden trees outside my home which I remember you said he admired. As they are beautiful, so are the memories of the cherished life you nurtured with your beloved Tony. My deepest condolences.

So sorry to hear of Tony‘s passing. May he RIP. Thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family Lynn.
Kat and I moved to Clyde St in 1988 and within a couple days met not only tremendous neighbours in Tony and Lynne but friends for life. The good deeds sent our way are too many to list here but I'm sure Tony would rather it was kept quiet. Our family will miss the laughs, the advice and I never thought I would say this, but I will miss the warm beers out in the garage. Cheers Tony O
Lynne & family: thinking of you at this sad time. He was a wonderful person & well liked. Cherish the memories and may he rest in peace.
