Obituary of Anthony Esposito

Anthony Esposito was 97 years young when he was suddenly taken from us to join our mother up in heaven. Anyone that knew him, knew he was one of the most intelligent, humble, generous, and loving people. It was an honor to have him as our father. Born to Italian immigrants, this man thrived in every way possible. He fought overseas for our country in two wars and gave up a full ride to Georgetown Law to be closer to his wife and family. He graduated law school but never practiced due to family business obligations. He was a successful businessman and ran the Kings Grant Inn in Point Pleasant, New Jersey for many years. He and his wife raised 8 children, 19 grandchildren, and 17 great grandchildren. We are all blessed to have had shared many years of his loving presence. We can only hope he and his wife of 69 years are dancing once again after a six-year separation. She called to him last week and he knew it was time to go to her. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life. You will live on forever in each of us.
