LUCIA, Anthony Anthony Lucia, 54, appreciated life to its fullest. He wasn't just a good lawyer, a loving husband and father of two; he had a soft spot for dogs, loved classic rock'n'roll, sports, occasionally wore old gym shorts to the office, and enjoyed taking walks on the beach. His sense of humor was famous among his family, friends, and co-workers, and he kept it even through his many battles with various cancers. Tony loved good food and wine, and always shared his knowledge and good fortune with others. His life was dedicated to working hard for what was right and he truly enjoyed his work. He was an inspiration to everyone who knew him, and he'll be missed very much by many. He passed away peacefully on May 24 in the early morning, and is survived by his wife of 24 years, Charleen; daughter, Diandra; son, Justin. He is also survived by his parents, Claude and Madelyn; his younger sister, Claudia; and his devoted niece, Sharon Rush. Visitation and Prayer Service was held at Whitney & Murphy Funeral Home, 4800 East Indian School Rd. Funeral Mass at St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church, 2312 East Campbell Ave. Interment at Holy Redeemer Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions to the Phoenix Symphony, 455 North 3rd St., Phoenix, AZ 85004, St. Mary's Food Bank, 2841 North 31st Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85009, or Hospice of the Valley, 1510 East Flower St., Phoenix, AZ 85014.
