Anthony, or Cub to most, was a generous, loving, and compassionate person. He would literally give you the shirt off his back. He loved his family and friends and enjoyed any kind of gathering. He needed no excuse to celebrate. He bragged often about what Markier was doing or what cute thing Harlem said to him or where LaVier was going. He was so excited at the birth of the new grand baby, Journei. He often said what great moms Regina and Melisa were.
He loved his city, Philadelphia and was a huge Eagles’ fan. He lived in a few cities and had an opportunity to travel while in the Navy.
He was a creative and awesome cook. He worked in some of the finest restaurants in Philadelphia before turning his hat to pastries. He attended pastry school where he designed beautiful desserts. He was an artist, creating custom designs for jeans and accessories. His creativity was also reflected in how he dressed, he had his own unique style and was a trend setter.
Life was sometime a struggle for him but on his difficult days he would talk about his relationship with God and quote his favorite scripture, Romans 5:3-5 which talks about tribulation. He lived his life the best he could, He will be remembered as a loving and supportive family member and friend. He will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Lovingly, the family
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, June 27, 2024. More details to follow.
