He married the love of his life, Nancy Kolberg of Sheboygan Falls, on September 27, 1958 and they were blessed with four beautiful children. Along with his wife, Tony enjoyed volunteering in the Sheboygan community, traveling with People to People, singing with the church choir, and auditing classes at UW Sheboygan. Not only was Tony a life long learner, he also spent time reading with the second grade class at Jefferson Elementary School. Tony's passion for life was contagious and he enjoyed meeting knew people everywhere he went. If he didn't know you when you sat next to him, he'd know you when you left. While spending time with family, his favorite view was of Lake Michigan from the cottage he built with Nancy in Sturgeon Bay, WI.
