Alice Bouligny Lapeyre. The union with a fourth mate, Giselle Marie Grenier,

Tony started After Hours T-shirt printing and later changed its name to 
AbsurdiTee when he moved the shop to Maple Street. The shop was once again 
moved to Oak Street until its demise during Hurricane Katrina. He was also a 
collector and dealer of high quality vintage toys and collectibles, and had a
