Jim Antal Sr.

I grew up in Essex and knew Jim from the record hops at Stemmers Run, and possibly Kenwood. He was a good dancer and a sweet person.Fond memories.

Dear Donna and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was such a great teacher and friend. My thoughts and prayers are with you. He was truly a gentleman! God bless you.

Everyone at the Welcome One Emergency Shelter is grateful for the support and friendship Mr. Antal gave us. We are saddened by his passing and send our sympathies to his family.

See you again old friend for now rest with the Lord. You were always one of the special ones. God bless your family my prayers are with them. Mary F.(Plunkett)Everett

Terribly sorry to hear of Mr. Antal's passing. Always a true gentleman and a kind person who treated all around him like family. They just don't make guys like that anymore. Deepest sympathies to Jim, Vicki, Haley, Josh and Paige.

I also grew up in the Woodlynn /Martin road neighborhood. Jim, his brother Dennis and sister Marianne were friends of mine, great people and family. The bus stop when the kids in the neighborhood were attending Stemmers Run was in front of the Antal house, at the corner of Woodlynn and Martin Road. It was a great place to grow up with so many friends, many of us still in contact with each other.

I am so sorry to hear of Jimmys passing.I grew up in the neighborhood and Jim was always a kind and caring person. May he rest in peace.

I'm so sorry to hear of Mr. Antal's passing. He was our librarian at Fullerton Elementary and even now, 25 years later, I still have fond memories of the many different activities and programs he had for us. One of my best memories of elementary school was when he had Priscilla Cummings, author of the Chadwick the Crab books, come in to speak with us. He went all out to make this an amazing day for his students. I hope I'm able to foster a love of learning and reading in my students, just...
