Dear Chiodo family, I am sending my condolences to you and sending you strength for today's funeral. I hope today is filled with love from friends and family. Rest well Tony

Tony was more than family. Knowing Tony was to experience his genuine freedom to laugh, his colourful curiosity and the sense of aliveness in his soul.

That spirit has not faded, it will live on in our memories and our hearts in a warm natural way.

It seems he lived a lot like he played the guitar, with his own rhythm and resonance.

I know how profoundly this must impact you, Carole. Know you are surrounded with love.

Tony, you will be missed. Thank you for the memories and laughter we shared. Farewell my friend

To Michael and the Chiodo family, my deepest condolences on the passing of your dear Tony. I've known Michael for many years and been a part of his health journey, through that time, he shared many fond stories of his beloved dad, A person who seems to have had such an impact on so many. Cherish the memories and joy they bring through the saddest of times.

A gentle man with the warmest smile … which morphed into the cheekiest grin. Only happy memories. Condolences to Tony’s family, how lucky you are to have had him in your life.

I’m so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you all at this very sad time.


I’m sure Tony will live on through the love you shared and the many stories and memories that will continue to be told.
