Personal Information

Happily married to Susan, his wife of 32 years , who for the last 8 years has been traveling with Tony to every show managing sound and at times, being part of his act!

 They have 2 sons, Daniel and David. Daniel is a consultant in the pharmaceutical industry, and David is a Science teacher at Manheim Township School, in Lancaster County PA.

"I currently find myself in a rewarding career which allows for creative expression and a personal connection to other people. Since I was very young, I've always been a People Person and singing to someone at their table always seems to be a personally rewarding experience. Seeing smiles on their faces  and that glimmer in their eye, releases a wonderful feeling to flow out through the words of a beautiful song."

Taking out the convertible or motorcycle for a cruise with Susan on a lovely summer day.

Taking care of our 2 horses and other pets.
