Anthony E. Parrino, 87, is survived by his wife Joan Parrino, children Joseph A., Richard, and Mark Parrino, grandchildren, great-granddaughters, great grandsons, nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Preceded in death by his parents Joseph and Josephine Parrino, daughter Marie A. Fountain, and siblings Paul E. Parrino, Claudia Schmit, Joseph Parrino, and Mae Salvador, and in-laws Joseph and Stella Dooley. Anthony's unwavering dedication to his wife of 68 years and his love for his family were unparalleled. He adored German shepherds, enjoyed watching the Chicago White Sox, supporting St. Jude's Children's Hospital and St. Joseph's Indian School, was a member of the Knights of Columbus, and a longstanding parishioner at St. Irene’s Church. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Floral tributes or tree plantings in memory of Anthony can be sent through the floral store.
