ANTHONY SPINA JR.
Mass of Christian Burial was to be celebrated today for Anthony Spina Jr., a South Philadelphia barber who ran an old-style shop where all the customers got tonic on their hair.
Spina, 80, who died Sunday, lived in South Philadelphia.
When South Philadelphians who had made their mark in show business returned to their roots, Spina was the guy they sought out to trim their hair. Actor Jack Klugman was a regular, so was Fabian.
For more than 40 years Spina cut hair in his shop at 7th and Morris streets. The shop was destroyed by fire in 1974, but he reopened for business at 19th and Jackson streets with a two-chair shop, where he continued to cut hair until 1984, when ill health forced his retirement.
He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Kathryn Geraci Spina; three daughters, Rosemarie Beltrante, Bernadette Foster and Geraldine Pietrantonio; three brothers, Frank, John and Gene; and eight grandchildren.
Mass of Christian Burial was to be celebrated 9:45 this morning at St. Mary
