Anthony began his love of golf at a very young age. He would work as a ball collector on the driving range at Southwick Golf Course. They would allow him to play for free if he picked balls. From there he would play on the golf team atWilliamsHigh School. While in college, he knew he wanted to continue his love for golf and worked at Wade Hampton Golf Course in Cashiers during the summer break. After he graduated, he continued his work at Wade Hampton as assistant golf pro for several years. Once he began work at Forest Oaks Country Club he found the right fit to be around his family and friends and continue a career he loved. He had a strong relationship with all of the members and considered them all friends, many his best friends.
Anyone who met Anthony knew he was a great guy. He loved his family, his friends and none more than his son. He took joy in grilling out on the weekends with his dad and talking for hours. He played the guitar and listened to many types of music. He adored his mother and helped take care of her as she became ill with dementia. Anthony was always talking about trips with his friends to golf courses, concerts, and to the mountains. If you were his friend, you were his friend for life. He held each one close to his heart. His greatest joy and love was his son, Preston. He would always talk about how proud he was of his academic accomplishments and watching him play baseball. He stated many times he was his pride and joy in life.
A memorial service will be conducted at the Rich and Thompson Chapel in Burlington on Thursday, September 2, 2021. Family will receive friends and family from 4:00 until 5:00 with the service following at 5:00.
