| Newton MA News and Politics BlogNewton lost an extraordinary community member and a gentle soul when Tony Bibbo passed away in August. Thanks to Aaron Goldman for honoring Tony in this week’s issue of the Newton TAB

Aaron’s words say it all about Tony:

“He was patient with everyone. He made sure everyone’s voice was heard. He never interrupted anyone, and he never lost sight of the overarching mission of everything he did: bringing people together. Most of all, he couldn’t possibly have been less interested in seeking credit for his work, or a well-deserved piece of the limelight.”

“While friends and neighbors make enemies out of one another over development, recreational marijuana and leaf blowers, Tony was a walking, living example of how to disagree without being disagreeable.”
