FORSTER – On May 3, in the United Kingdom, surrounded by his family, ANTHONY, aged 85. A beloved husband, father and friend to those who knew him. Married to Jean for 61 years, Anthony exemplified the beauty of commitment and love. As a dear father to Sandra and her husband Gary, Stephen and his wife Irene and Jeannie, he bestowed upon them not just his name, but a legacy of kindness and love. He was the adored grandfather of Victoria and Thomas; Rhys and Cassandra; David; Alexandra and Simon. In every cherished memory and shared moment, Anthony’s presence illuminated the lives of those around him. Though he may no longer walk among us, his spirit continues to inspire and guide the family. His love for the island of Malta and his association through the family, remained a burning passion until the end. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and may perpetual light shine upon him.
