He was employed at Speedy Car Wash and Ideal Cleaners on East Main St, where he became a Master at pressing clothes here, he took pride in what he did. Thank you, Tony and Logan for giving him this opportunity.

Anthony enjoyed spending time with family and friends, he would always say, “I’m headed down to the house (where he grew up) to listen to some old music. He held a special place in his heart for his nieces and nephews.

Anyone who knew Anthony knows he had a love for sports and traveled on numerous occasions to the Cleveland Stadiums to watch the Cleveland Indians (now Guardians) and the Cleveland Browns. Anthony was a true fan of the Cleveland Browns – win or lose he always supported them and even though many would ask what happened to the Browns his reply, “WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR” he should have received a reward for being their number one fan.
