Tony was born on March 19th, 1940, to Anthony and Mary (Pecoraro) Pagano in Rochester, NY. As a young adult, he went on to serve in the United States Army from 1962-1964 (SP5), earning a “Good Conduct” medal and both Sharpshooter and Expert marksmanship badges. After an honorable discharge, he continued his career working with Eastman Kodak.

A special thanks to his caregivers (Norma, Kim, Clara, Rasheda, Lisa and Alyssa), Mike Linder (VA Nurse), and his friends at The Villages at Unity for making his last couple of years some of the best. Your kindness and compassion did not go unnoticed, as Tony knew just how loved he was.
