Anchorage resident Anthony "Tony" J. Curro died unexpectedly Oct. 18, 2010, in Anchorage, surrounded by his family. A visitation was held with a funeral Mass at St. Benedict's Catholic Church. A reception followed downstairs in the parish hall. Interment was at the Anchorage Memorial Park Cemetery, 535 E. Ninth Ave.

Tony was born Feb. 1, 1969, in Grand Forks, N.D., to Ann and James J. Curro. His dad was in the Air Force, so Tony traveled to many places including New York, Kansas, and Fairbanks. He moved to Anchorage in 1979. Tony's passion was sports. He loved to play football, baseball, softball, bowling and volleyball as a kid and into adulthood. Tony attended Wineteer Elementary in Kansas and Orion Elementary on Elmendorf AFB. He attended Central Junior High and graduated in 1987 from West Anchorage High School, where he was an All-State football player. He also played football at Southern Oregon State College. In 1992, Tony married Leann Jack. In 1994, Tony became the proud father of Suzann Curro. Four years later, his son James was born. He and his wife later divorced. Tony's children meant everything to him. He loved to watch his daughter dance and play soccer, and his son play football and soccer. Tony loved working with kids, whether as a teacher at Pacific Northern Academy, as a coach, or with his kids, nieces and nephew. Tony reunited with a high school girlfriend, Lorena Hernandez, who became his fiancee.

Tony is survived by his parents, Ann and James J. Curro; his children, Suzann and James Curro; his siblings, Beth Van Couwenberghe and husband Bill; his brother, James Curro and wife Sheri; his sister, Kristie Curro; his fiancee, Lorena Hernandez; nieces and nephew Annalena, Anthony and Annemarie Van Couwenberghe; his fiancee's daughter, Angelica Hess; and many extended family and friends.
