‘Tony’
Bonomo
dies
By CHARLOT M. DENMON
Staff Correspondent
The sudden death of Anthony
Bonomo, Sr. last week, saddened
hundreds of adults and youth in the
Back Mountain.
Known better to his friends and
neighbors as “Tony,” the owner and
proprietor of Bonomo’s Sports
Center was a friend, advisor, team-
mate and companion to the many
persons, young and old, who fre-
quented the bowling lanes, skating
rink or on occasion, tennis courts.
A quiet man, Tony always had a
smile and a hello for everyone and
he was one of those rare individuals
who never forgot a name or a face.
In the 25 years he was in business
in Dallas and prior to that when he
was proprietor of Exeter Recreation
Center, Tony had one dream — that
was to develop a recreation center
and sports complex for the entire
family. A place where parents and
children could’ go as a family, a
place that would serve as an exten-
sion of family life to which Tony
was dedicated.
Tony loved all people and he
extended a helping hand to many
unfortunate people in the area. No
one will ever know how many times
and to how many people he
extended a helping hand.
He loved his family, and after the
death of his wife, Helen, he became
deeply involved in the family life of
his two sons, Richard and Tony, Jr.
During the past few years, outside
of the bowling lanes and skating
rink, Tony’s entire life revolved
around his twin grandsons, Rocky
and Ricky.
Tears came to his eyes and he
beamed with pride as he spoke
glowingly about the success the
twins had achieved in their wres-
tling careers, both in high school
and later in college. His one wish
was that the two boys would com-
plete their college education and
become successful young men of the
future.
Just several weeks before he went
into the hospital, in a conversation
with this writer he said, “I love
those two boys, nobody knows how
proud I am of them. I only wish
their Grandmother Helen was here
to see what good boys they are.”
Recently, Tony sold the skating
rink and, with the aid of his two
sons, Richard and Tony Jr., planned
to renovate and improve the bowl-
ing lanes. Now that is the legacy he
has left to both sons - perhaps a
better word is the challenge he has
left - to make Bonomo’s Sports
Center bigger and better than ever,
a memorial to a man whose ambi-
tion in life was to provide family
recreation for the Back Mountain.
Tony Bonomo Sr., passed away
Thursday, Sept. 5, at Mercy Hospi-
tal where he had been a surgical
patient for three weeks. Most of his
friends were not even aware that he
had entered the hospital; most had
just’ seen him just a short time
before at the lanes or doing errands
in Dallas.
Just one day prior to Tony’s
death, a brother, Elmer, died at his
home in Wilkes-Barre.
Tony was born in Wilkes-Barre,
the son of the late Charles A. and

Tony Bonomo has passed on, but
in the hearts and minds of the men
