📰 News we're reading

• Antonio Rodney 'Tony' Cocimano Jr. (thebaynet.com) — Upper Marlboro is gently woven into the life story of Antonio “Tony” Cocimano, who married his wife there in 1976 before building a devoted family life in Southern Maryland. The obituary honors his decades running a local store, caring for Navy families, and cherishing his role as husband, father, and “Pop Pop,” with funeral services set for mid-January in Lexington Park and Ridge.
