Anthony J. “Tony” Tiberi, age 89, passed away peacefully on Wednesday February 11, 2026 at Mother Angeline McClory Manor. Born in Pettorano Sul Gizio, Italy. After moving to the United States as a young boy, he grew up in San Margherita.

Anthony was a 1956 graduate from St. Thomas Aquinas High School. He proudly served in the US Army. After graduating from Ohio Dominican College, he then went to the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science, graduating in 1968. 

Tony was a member of Southeast Lions Club, St. John the Baptist Church, and past member of Guild Athletic Club. He also volunteered at Christ the King Church and St. Charles Preparatory High School.

He enjoyed a 60+ year career in funeral service joining his father-in-law, John Quint Jr, and helping to grow the family business, Maeder-Quint-Tiberi Funeral Home, serving the families of Central Ohio with dedication and compassion.

Tony worked hard his entire life, never backing down from a challenge and always treating the families that he served as if they were his own, a quality that he passed on to his sons. He loved his family and his grandchildren, truly enjoyed being with them and going to their events. He was an avid Ohio State football fan, loved his country and enjoyed time spent in Florida.
