John Anthal

JoAnne, I´m not sure you will ever see this since I´m posting it at such a late date. But Kevin (younger brother) just found John´s obit yesterday. I think it was 1985 when you & John opened your home to Joyce & I. Zorba the Greek, 5th row. John told us you were expecting your first child. I remember teasing John about being 55 years old & teaching his kid how to drive. John had everything planned out, he was retiring to Aruba. Reading John´s obituary, I learned so much about John´s life that...

Our deepest condolences to JoAnne and family. It's strange as I sit here today thinking how is John doing because I did not see him in years here on Aruba. I did a Google and found out he recently died. I still remember the evenings we spend together telling stories with a drink.
Rest in peace John.

To The Anthal Family -
When I learned of his passing, I was quite surprised. I always looked forward to seeing him in the store(Shop Rite) each day. I knew he was not well, but he always was very pleasant. I had the opportunity to work with his son John, also a pleasure to talk to and his wife and daughter also. He was so very proud of his granddaughter too. Every time I spoke to him, and he would tell me about his granddaughter, his face would just light up with such joy! I know the...

My prayers go out to the family in this time of loss. The bible tells us to "rejoice with people who rejoice; weep with people who weep." (Romans 12:15) I share your grief.

My deepest condolences to the Anthal family. I worked in John's Human Factors group for the last two-and-a-half years of my 20+ year career at AT&T. It was one of the best jobs I ever had there. John was a great guy and as a manager was always very supportive of his people. I was very much saddened to learn of his passing. John had a real zest for life that was contagious. He will be missed by all who knew him. May God bless and comfort his family.

May the wonderful memories you have bring you comfort during this most difficult time!

May God fold you and yours in His loving arms and give you peace and comfort.
Rest in Peace, John.

As I read the life story of your loved one I get the sense that he was truly someone that was very active and enjoyed life. There are so many endeavors to pursue in life and not enough time to do them all. But whatever we do that makes a positive difference it is worthwhile. You will surely miss him but reflect on the gift of memory. God has given us a memory to call back to mind all the wonderful moments in our life that make us happy. So at any time of the day you can reflect on happy...

Mary,
Sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
