June and Anthony
Anthony E. Cardone, died Tuesday morning, September 30, 2009 at his home in
Saugus,
with his family at his bedside. He was 80 years old. He was born on March 1,
1929 the oldest son of late the Vito M. Cardone & Verlimina (Rizzo) Cardone.
Anthony was born in Chelsea and educated in the Chelsea school system.
Anthony in his early teen years helped his parents support the family. He
later became a plasterer and worked life long in his trade. Anthony was
never one to sit still at home. He was always working on one project or another
throughout the house, tending the garden or making home repairs. He always had
more energy than anyone else.
On
Saturday nights he enjoyed dancing with his lovely wife June. They were quite
the dancers. This was something they both enjoyed and he cherished this for
years. They spent many Saturday nights at the Malden Moose or the Hollywood,
FL Moose when they were living in Florida, just dancing the night away. Anthony
also enjoyed golfing, bowling and watching all the Boston sports teams.
One
of Anthony’s best nights out was with his daughter Patty. They both went to a Bruce Springsteen concert. Patty said that he enjoyed the concert
to the fullest not wanting to leave until the last song. She said he was like
the energizer bunny to the point that even she was exhausted and Anthony was
still going.
Mr.
Cardone had lived in Chelsea, later moving to Revere, then Malden. Anthony later
moved to Hallandale Beach, FL with his wife June. In January of 2004 June
passed away at the age of sixty-six in Florida. The couple spent forty-five
years together and would have celebrated their fifty-third wedding anniversary this
coming October 1, 2009. Anthony later moved back to Malden and lived with his
daughter and her family. The family just moved to their new home in Saugus in
