"Our thoughts and prayers to the Volonino Family"
-The Uraco Family
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Volonino family and especially Cathy, Tony and Frank, your Dad was an amazing man and father to you all, I remember all the times we got together as kids, playing pool, going on picnics,Sunday Italian dinners, listening to music the memories are still very vivid. He was kind, attentive and so handsome! He was a great friend to my father Pros Rivelli which I know he will miss terribly. Rest in Peace.. Desiree Rivelli Tatum
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Tony was our neighbor and a great neighbor at that. We will miss him.

Tony was my first friend in Florida, my first business partner and my mentor in the construction business. We shared some of the best of times' and the saddest of times. We spent many hours together talking about the old neighborhoods of Brooklyn and how to solve the problems of the world. All that said, the bottom line is Tony was my great friend with whom I shared a close bond.This man could have been a comic in Vegas as he would come out with joke after joke, non-stop. I recall one party at my house when about 9 pm Tony started telling joke. At 1am he was still going strong. This was just one of the many amazing talents that people loved about him. I will truly miss Tony and his friendship. Good luck my friend...God Bless! Your friend, Pros Rivelli.
I will miss you and the family stories/pictures you shared with me over the past few years. I always looked forward to our conversations. Your outlook was always so positive. I know you were my cousin but you will for ever be my "Uncle" Anthony in my heart. I love you. Rest in Peace.

Though I have known Mr. V for many years, we were not close. But what I can say about him is that his smile was infectious, his attitude amazing and his life a tribute to genuine success. He may not have been tall in stature but he was bigger than life to me. I am blessed to know him.

Tony and our family go back to when he moved to St.Pete. We worked and played together. So many great memories and laughs. He is going to be missed. He had all the those health problems and always the best attitude never complaining. Rest in peace brother RIP.
