NORTHERN CALIFORNIA – Tony was born Nov. 19, 1966, in San Francisco. He was taken unexpectedly on March 19, 2017, in the city that he loved. His passing is a great loss for our world.

Tony was a a native of San Francisco. He loved everything about the history and culture of his city. He was a brilliant photographer. He could capture beauty and art in his pictures.

Tony was a joker and a sarcastic prankster. He would laugh, tease and poke fun all the time. He loved music and all sports. Fishing was his game, but he never caught anything. He loved camping and all sorts of adventures.

His biggest joy in life was his daughter, Jamie. He took her everywhere: games, fishing, concerts and his favorite place “The Double Play” just to have a PBR or two. He would move mountains for Jamie. He was her bodyguard and best friend.

Tony didn't think twice about helping people. He was always there no matter what; he truly had a heart of gold. To know Tony was to love him. He will always be missed and remembered.

Tony is survived by his loving daughter, Jamie (Johnny); brothers, Rick (Darlene) and John Moreno; sister, Terry (Sylvestre) Hurtado; grandchildren, Gia, Shaun, Evan, Johnny, Aliyah, Angelina and Monique; grandma, Susan; nephews, Rick (Cherice) and Joey (Rose) Moreno and children; and great friends, Karen and Sherry McWilliams.

Tony was predeceased by his son, Michael; mother, Hilaria Poggi; father, Joe Tellez; brother, Charles Poggi; and his beloved Mac and Janey.

Special thank you to Running Creek Casino and all of his friends and loved ones.

A celebration of life will be held at the Son's of Italy in Nice on Saturday, April 22, from 2 to 4 p.m. Please come and share your memories and stories of Tony, and always see the art of this world.

"Forgive, Forget, and move on,

drink a PBR and sing a song.

Go fishing and take a nap-

see a game and just relax."
