Anthony S. Pantiliano
Died: May 24, 2020
Anthony was the most loving son, brother, grandson, nephew, and friend. He was his mother’s baby boy, and his father’s best friend. Anthony protected his sisters so strongly and would never let anything happen to them. They have never felt safer or more loved by anyone else in their entire life. When it came to someone he loved, everyone knew better than to mess with “Big Ant.” He always protected and cared for those he loved, making sure he always put others before himself. If there is one thing we know about Anthony, it is that he will not rest until everyone is happy and taken care of.
Anthony worked alongside his father and John DeSena as an Electrician for their company JADE Electrical Contracting. Anthony loved to learn and work next to his father each and every day. The bond they shared was indescribable and unlike any other. Anthony had amazing work ethic, and was the hardest working person you could ever meet.
Anthony loved sports and watching the New York Giants and Mets. During football season he never missed watching a game on Sunday with his dad. As a true Italian he loved to eat and secretly was a great cook. He enjoyed working on his truck, teasing and joking with his family, and taking care of his Pugs. In Anthony’s short life he left such an everlasting imprint on all of our lives and will never be forgotten.
Anthony is survived by his father, Anthony Pantiliano, and mother, Angela Pantiliano, along with his three sisters, Nicole, Brittany and Jessica. He is also survived by his grandparents Samuel and Marilyn Pantiliano and Leonard and Isabella Tridente, along with many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
You will always be in our hearts. We love you and we miss you. Until we are together again...
Heaven has received a special angel.
Saturday, May 30 services will be held for Anthony. Arrangements are under the direction of the Cochran Funeral Home, 905 High Street, Hackettstown, NJ. www.cochranfuneral.com

So sorry for your loss. I haven’t seen Ant in quiet a few years. But will never forget him. Everything said above was just as true when we were still in touch many years ago. Times like these make you really regret letting so much time pass without seeing an old friend.
Rest easy Ant.
