He also enjoyed time on the river, boating and jet skiing with his family and friends. He was a devoted fan of both Penn State and the New York Yankees. Anthony was a member of the Smethport VFW Post 138 and the Red Lion American Legion Post 543. Above all, Anthony treasured the time he spent with his family.
