Anthony Louis, 56, born in Wilmington, Delaware and lived in Philadelphia, passed away on February 2, 2026.

Anthony was the beloved son of the late Anthony DeJohn and Patricia Janvier DeJohn. He was a devoted brother to Joseph DeJohn and Janvier DeJohn Clark (Rick), a proud and loving father to his daughter, Samantha DeJohn, and a loving partner to Danielle Farrell. Loving uncle of Gianna and Nick DeJohn, Anthony and Aaron Clark.

Known for his unique personality and charismatic presence, Anthony had a natural way of making people feel comfortable and genuinely cared for. He was outgoing, creative, and affectionate, He expressed his love through his passions, especially cooking, where he found joy in feeding others with his special recipes, and fishing, which brought him comfort and allowed him to reminisce about his childhood. Above all, he cherished spending time with his daughter, who was truly the center of his world.

Anthony will be remembered for his warmth, generosity, and the genuine love he shared with family and friends. His memory will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Services and internment will be held privately to the family.
