Anthony "Tony" Riccobene

Anthony (Tony) Riccobene, 59, of Gulf Breeze, Florida, was welcomed into Heaven on April 30, 2022 by his father and mother, Frank and Ann Riccobene, his big brother, Frank Riccobene, and his nephew, John Panzer.

A bright star came into our lives when Tony was born on June 1, 1962.  Tony was the youngest of six siblings. He faced and overcame many obstacles in his life with a joyful spirit and smile on his face.

Tony graduated from Rosemary Kennedy High School in 1983 and began working at the ARC in Long Island.  Later, Tony continued his career at the ARC in Pensacola, Florida until his retirement in 2018.

Tony’s greatest enjoyment was being surrounded by his family and friends. His charismatic personality enabled him to make many friends over the years.

Tony was dearly loved and will be missed by his many nieces, nephews, and friends. He will be forever loved and missed by his sisters, Linda, JoAnn, Theresa, and Janet. When we look at the stars, you will always be with us.

Visitation will be held at Roselawn Funeral Home in Gulf Breeze, Florida on Thursday, May 5, from 5-7pm followed by a celebration of life service, beginning at 7pm in the same location. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Tony’s name to ARC Gateway, Pensacola, Florida.
