It is with much sadness that I report the passing this morning of Mr. Tony Bonanno. Tony died about 7:45 a.m. at his home in South Philadelphia. His life and his spirit through his long illness are inspirational. To his wife, Maria, and all his family, his friends and colleagues, and his Quaker City String Band family, we extend our condolences and the full faith that Tony lives forever in the hearts and the smiles of those he touched.

Hi,
Tony was a bandmate of mine in Trilby String Band a long time ago. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. I live in Massachusetts but is there any way I could make a contribution to his family?
Thank you,
Donna
Hi, Donna, no plans or details have been made public yet. When I get them I will post them. Thank you, Steve
You are very kind, Maria. Please be comforted by the fact that many will walk with you tonight and tomorrow, and always be there for you.
