Anthony R. Mazza, \”Tony\”, Age 70, of Largo Florida, formerly of Magnolia NJ passed away on November 22, 2008.

Anthony was born a twin son in Atlantic City, NJ to parents Joseph and Maria of Calabria, Italy. Raised in Hammonton NJ, Anthony and his brothers and sisters learned the value of hard work by assisting their parents on the family farm.

Anthony joined the Air Force in 1956. He was stationed in Japan and the Philippines and in the states of California, Mississippi and Texas. While serving, he trained as a Radar Repairman Second Class, in the HQ 3555^th Flying Training Group Advanced Intercept. He received a Good Conduct Medal and Honorable Discharge in 1960 and remained as an Inactive Reservist until 1962.

Anthony married Carol (Levengood) in August of 1961. They had a son Anthony in March of 1963 and daughter Michelle in June of 1966. Anthony was a Carpenter and Cabinet Maker by trade and was well known for his attention to detail and fine finish work. He played the Accordion in the Berlin String Band and was an avid bowler and sports fan. He often bowled on leagues and was presented with numerous trophies over the years. He moved to Florida in 1998 and enjoyed his early ‘retirement’ years fishing and boating in the sunshine state. He was very much looking forward to celebrating his 50^th wedding anniversary.

Anthony fought a very long and courageous 30 year battle with cancer and touched everyone who knew him with his will to survive. Always the optimist, he never complained of his illness, even when he knew his health would fail him.

Anthony is survived by his wife Carol, Son Anthony, Daughter Michelle, Sisters Josephine and Angelina, Brother Santo (Nancy), Sister in Law Shirley, and many loving friends, cousins, nieces and nephews, and his beloved stray tabby cat named Skooch.

\”I am highly disturbed by published reports that indicate that towns with UEZs have had funds grabbed without notice,\” Allen stated. This is another example of the complete lack of transparency in the Corzine administration. Through no fault of their own these towns received funds from the state in error. UEZS are towns that by definition towns are disadvantaged and many may be unable to cover the loss of these resources.\”

Statewide 37 municipalities with UEZs were overpaid by state government about $40 million. Mount Holly, Burlington County is one of the towns affected by the over-payment of sales tax collections. This week Mount Holly had $324,651.14 taken by the State, before anyone ever bothered to let the town know of the problem.

\”It is unconscionable that the Corzine Administration would snatch these monies from the town’s account without even telling them why,\” Allen continued. \”This was Corzine’s mistake after all. The administration should have communicated the problem to the towns, had open discussions on how to resolve the issue, and worked with the municipalities on a plan to repay the funds on an installment schedule.\”
