In Memory of Anthony Nelson Carnival of St. Marks, Florida

After a 77 year adventure that included doing and seeing many things that most of us will only dream of, Tony Carnival left this world to continue his journey in where he believed would be a better place.

Tony, or Junior as he was called by his late parents and brothers, or Poppy as he was known to most others left a note, not to cry for him as he had spent his life doing all of the things that he enjoyed from diving and treasure hunting in the Bahamas, to fishing, playing cards, traveling and even served in the Korean War where he was a hero who earned a Silver Star for Bravery.

In his later years, Tony enjoyed countless hours with his Poker Buddies playing Texas Holdem'.  But what he loved most was his family and his kitties and we all loved him very much.

Tony is survived by his daughter Debbie Kosec, his son Chuck Carnivale and Lezlee Sillivan, his dear friend Joyce Holly, his brothers Kenny and Dickey Carnivale, grandchildren:  Randy and Juliane Kosec, Anthony Carnivale, Kenneth and Kelly Carnivale, Erik Kosec, JoyceMarie Carnivale and Kristina Kosec, great grandchildren:  Kenya, Amanda, and Annemarie.  Other close family members include Katrina Carnivale, Greg Herren, and many nephews and nieces.

Daddy (Poppy), we all hope you are sitting up there in Heaven holding a Royal Flush.  We all miss you very much and we love you with all our hearts.  May God bless you.

A graveside service will he held on Saturday, July 28th at 11:00 a.m. at the St. Marks Cemetery.  In lieu of flowers please make a donation to St. Jude's Children's Hospital.  (Click here for information on donating to St. Jude.)

Arrangements are being handled by Harvey-Young Funeral Home of Crawfordville, Florida.
