Anthony Jersey Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by DeMoney-Grimes Funeral Home on Apr. 17, 2024.
Anthony M. Jersey, a dedicated worker throughout his lifetime, passed away on April 16, 2024, in South Whitley, Indiana. He was born on June 28, 1951, in Huntington, Indiana.

In his career, Anthony poured his heart into his work in the tool and die industry. However, beyond his professional life, he found immense joy in supporting his daughters at their sporting events. A familiar face on the sidelines at every game, Anthony always made sure to bring flowers to the team at the end of each season, a gesture that reflected his kind and thoughtful nature.

Described as having a tough exterior but a tender spot for his daughters, Anthony was known as a reserved man of few words who possessed a keen listening ear. His hobbies included cutting wood, mushroom hunting, vegetable gardening, and deer hunting - activities that brought him closer to nature and provided moments of peace and contentment.

Anthony is survived by his loving family daughters Jennifer Sanders, Renee (Cameron) Cone, Rebecca (Randall) Miller, and Veronica (Nathan) Yoder; grandchildren, Ethan, Alexa, Caden, Callie, Gavin, Prestin, Roman, Cheyenne, Madison, Ella and Anna; sister, Ann DeSerio; sister Judy (Mitch) Richardson; and sister-in-law, Sandy Jersey.  He was also preceded in death by his parents, Vernon and Evelyn Jersey; wife, Sandra Jersey; brother, Steve Jersey; and brother-in-law, David DeSerio.

While the sorrow of Anthony's passing weighs heavy on those who knew him best, it is through cherished memories and shared experiences that his legacy will live on. The impact he made through his work ethic, unwavering support for his family, and genuine kindness towards others will forever be remembered.

Services to honor and celebrate the life of Anthony will be held at the DeMoney-Grimes Funeral Home in Columbia City, Indiana at 1:00 pm Saturday, April 20, 2024. Friends and acquaintances are welcome to join in paying their respects to Anthony's family at the visitation from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm. Burial will be at South Whitley Cemetery.  Visit www.DeMoneyGrimes.com to send Anthony's family online condolences or sign the online guest book.
