Tony was always a spark of light and advice and a great mentor to me in my years with Combine, Metro, and Cascades. His let’s get it done attitude was always welcome. Knowing and working with him will always be a treasured memory. He’s probably up there right now trying to get the gates working better so we all can join him when the time comes. Miss you Tony! My heart goes out to all the family.
Pauline and family, we are sad to hear of Anthony’s passing. Words fail to express our deep sorrow for your loss. Anthony will be remembered for his positive outlook and laughter! Your wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does the memories will be sealed inside for comfort.

The Dewey family is very saddened by Tony’s early passing. In my years with Metro/Cascades Tony was a true blessing and just a wonderful person overall to work with and for! I consider Tony to be one of my three, with Al Metauro and Gary Sexton being the other two, mentors of my career. I loved when Tony was in the US as he always made us laugh, work smarter, and just showed us all how to just get it done. He was a true inspiration to everyone he touched. Our heart and best wishes along with our prayers are with the entire Metauro family.
Sincerely,
Penny and Steve Dewey

Our sincere condolences to Pauline and the Metauro family for your loss. Sending prayers with love and support through this sad time for all.
We were all honoured and humbled that Anthony chose us as friends. He should be an inspiration to all of us of how we should live our lives. Successful but kind and humble. Anyways the first to raise his hand when help was needed and never asking for anything in return. His passion was Pauline and his family. They were all safe and taken care of under his umbrella.
Words will never describe the void that will be left in our lives.
We were blessed to have him in our lives.
Loves always.
Oh dear, words fail. Thinking back to 1981 when visiting Canada for the first time to see family. Introduce to young man called Anthony, Pauline’s boyfriend. Liked him from the off. Polite, respectful, hard working.
Business then was two small pick-up trucks and the delight of finding “treasure” in any of the garbage from K-Mart and other outlets.
Over the years the respect and love for him grew.
The family and community will miss a champion.
Sending our love and thoughts to all.
Pauline and family, We are very sorry to hear of Anthony’s passing. May his memory be a blessing.
Our deepest sympathy to the family our prayers are with you
It was an honour being privileged enough to know Anthony. He was inspiring in his work ethic, leadership style and compassion. I will always aspire to achieve the same respect as I have for him.
My heart goes out to his close family and friends.
My deepest condolences to Pauline and family. Tony will be missed by all he is great guy and wonderful boss. He will be missed but never forgotten. Condolences all of Metauro family in this great loss. May Tony rest in peace.

Condolences to the Metauro family,I got to know Anthony ( tony as I called him) through Cascades, I met him approximately 12 years ago, since the first moment he was nothing but the nicest person with the passion of working, even though his position in the company he was still drawn to driving a forklift, loader or just getting his hands dirty with the little jobs, always gave me advice or the little nudge on the shoulder and say… why aren’t you doing it this way, this is what I did so sure enough I’d jump at the opportunity to try his ways… Tony may you Rest In Peace and know everything you did mattered…you will be very missed…
Our deepest sympathies to the Metauro family. Our prayers are all with you. Anthony was a great human being. It was an honor to have known him. Myriam and Luc Langevin

To Pauline and the entire Metauro family,
Our deepest sympathies and prayers go out to you. Tony was truly a special person that I was lucky enough to learn from and work with for the last 38 years. For many of those first few years I tried to out work him, out think him or just tried to get in before him….I never won as he was unbeatable so I sat and learned from the best on how to do it right.
It seems that all the memories I/we have of Tony make us smile and or laugh. If we hold onto those memories he will never leave us.
I’m sure he is showing St. Peter how the gate can work better and quicker.
