Naval Academy buries one of its own after death in crash

A leader. A scholar. A devout Catholic. Anthony “Tony” Valliere was remembered Thursday as a role model for both his siblings and his fellow midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy.

“Today is not a day of sorrow, but a celebration of a life of a remarkable man,” said Valliere’s brother Benedict. “He did what he loved to do, and brought up those around him ? and did everything with a smile.”
