I remember Tony from when I worked at Time Insurance for a short time. And then, eight years later, he was our neighbor when my husband and I moved into the house next door to his in Waukesha, Wisconsin. I will always remember his smile and his friendliness. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. Rest In Peace, Tony!
Sweetest neighbor ever. Will miss him so much.
In loving memory of a kind, funny, and giving guy – a fellow Wisconsinite! Love and prayers to all of the Vetta Family.
Such a beautiful human being. I knew him from the YMCA. ALWAYS with a smile and a kind word. One special guy!
My deepest sympathy to his family.

Tony participated in classes at the YMCA of which I was an Instructor. Tony had something special; people were drawn to him. Charming, easy laugh, sparkle to his eyes. He will be missed and fondly remembered.
Our heartfelt condolences & prayers go out to the family. We had the privilege & honor to work alongside Tony & Lynn at the Colorado State & District 60 Dutch Clark Stadium. They are beautiful & fun-loving couple who were always a pleasure to be around. We are blessed to know them as co-workers & friends. They will remain in our hearts forever.
I was so sad to hear of Tony’s passing. He was our neighbor on Dittmer and we loved him and Lynne so much. They were such good people and so fun to have conversation with. My deepest condolences to Tony’s family and all who loved him.
Tony was a member of the Pueblo YMCA and was adored by all. His presence made an exercise class feel like a party with his upbeat nature and sense of humor. He was kind, caring, generous, easy going and an honor to call friend. I have already missed him very much. Love, Cheri
