He is lovingly survived by his daughters, Francesca Borge, Katherine Borge-Citera and Joanna Borge. He found immeasurable joy in being “Nonno” and cherished every moment with his grandchildren: Rosaleigh Shinault, William Rosales, Lorenzo Borge-Citera, Gianni Flores, Giulianna Flores, and Graciella Flores. His love for his children and grandchildren was unwavering, and they remained the center of his world.

His sarcasm was legendary, often arriving with a grin that let everyone know he was joking—even if it took them a minute to catch on. He had a way of making people laugh, lightening the mood, and leaving lasting memories through his unique personality.

Though life brought its share of challenges, Anthony's greatest legacy will always be the love he had for his family. Anthony's memory will live on through the countless stories, laughter, and love he leaves behind.
