Christopher P. Antill

Christopher P. Antill, known fondly as 'Chris' to his friends and family, was a beacon of laughter, charisma, and thoughtfulness. Born on June 16, 1967, in Philadelphia, PA, Chris was a man who lived his life to the fullest, always exuding warmth and love. He possessed a remarkable knack for brightening up any room with his infectious humor, and his charisma made him a person everyone loved to be around. He was a loving husband, a compassionate son, a caring stepfather, and a doting grandfather.
Chris was a skilled mechanic, he owned his own auto shop for many years, a profession he was passionate about. His love for cars was not merely confined to his work; he also enjoyed working on them during his leisure time. His thoughtfulness was displayed in his daily phone call to his mother at precisely 3:30 pm, a routine he maintained without fail. Family was always the center of his world. Married to his beloved wife, Rita, since July 12, 1991, Chris loved her deeply and together, they built a beautiful family. His love extended beyond his human family, to his cherished dog, Nala, with whom he shared a special bond.
Chris is survived by his parents, Eugene and Joan Antill; his spouse, Rita Antill; his stepchildren, Michael Dolbow (Katie), Erica Dolbow, and Jessica Dolbow; his brothers, Timothy Antill (Tina) and William Antill; and his beloved grandchildren, Johnny, Ashley, Angelina, Danny, Vinny, Michael, Max, Jackson, and Amelia. His spirit and love will continue to live on through them, and his memory will forever be held dear in their hearts.
