Anthony M. Alessi Jr., lovingly known as Tony, passed away on July 11, 2024 in Brick, NJ .

Born in Passaic, NJ to Anthony and Ann Alessi on July 2, 1940, he lived an admirable life, full of passion, commitment and love, leaving this world at the age of 84.

Anthony's life was marked by his unwavering dedication to his family and his community. He is survived by his cherished wife of 65 years, Rosemarie Alessi; his devoted son Mark Alessi and daughter-in-law Maria; his sister Dorothy Alessi; and his adored dog, Jovi.

Having grown up in Clifton, NJ, Anthony dedicated 32 years of service as a fireman, retiring as Deputy Chief of the Clifton Fire Department in 1998. His bravery and leadership were not only evident in his professional life but also in the way he conducted himself daily. After his retirement, Anthony and Rosemarie moved to Manchester, NJ where they have resided since.

Anthony's zest for life was contagious. He cherished days spent on his boat, his spirit at home among the waves. Together with his wife, he explored the world on 23 cruises, creating a tapestry of shared memories.

Anthony will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
