Dear Toby,
May his memory serve as a blessing for the entire Anton family and derive much strength from your children, grandchildren and great-grandchild until 120. May the New Year give you only simchas and nachas as Yaakov Yeshayahu ben Mordechai would want.

I will always remember Rabbi Anton as one of my most favorite teachers throughout my years at Hillel Academy. He taught me so much, and though he would be stern when necessary, he was ever so successful in imparting to all of his students an enthusiam, respect and love for Torah like no other. As both a dear teacher and family friend, he will be sorely missed.
May his family be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem

I am saddened to hear this news. Rabbi Anton was my teacher at YES and was kind, thoughtful, and compassionate. (Even when I fell asleep once in class (because of lack of sleep the night before), he was infinitely understanding and let me sleep, saving me from embarrassment.) I will always remember him fondly and with great appreciation. May your entire family be comforted.

I was so saddened to hear of Rabbi Anton's passing. He was my teacher at Hillel Academy many, many years ago. With his gentle and patient demeanor, his ability to connect to us children was unparalleled. I still remember when he invited our entire class of some 19 kids to his house on Milwaukee's West Side for Shabbos, singing zmiros on Friday night with the family.
His memory will always remain unique to me. Baruch Dayan Emet.

We were so saddened to learn of Rabbi Anton's passing. Having been such close friends with the Antons in Charleston, SC, as a young child and with my parents having always stayed in close touch with Rabbi and Mrs. Anton since they left for Milwaukee, we feel as if an extended family member has passed and no words can capture what a fine and upstanding individual we have lost.
May his memory serve as a blessing and may Mrs. Anton derive much strength from her many children and grandchildren until 120. The family should know from no more such sorrow.
