Anthony J. Scelsa, III

Anthony J. Scelsa, III of Milltown, NJ passed away at home on October 2, 2023. 

He bravely fought a three month battle with brain cancer.

Tony had a zillion people who loved him.  He knew how to make a friend and be a friend.  Charming, gracious, and always ready to help others aptly describes him.

He was a member of Carpenters Local 1006.  He served in New Jersey Building Code Enforcement until retirement.

His greatest joy was raising his three sons from boys to men and helping to guide them as they raised their own families.

Tony is survived by his wife of 46 years Janis; sons Russell, Lucas, and Jacob; daughters-in-law April and Courtney; grandchildren Vivian, Emmett, Parker, and Rosie; and sister and brother-in-law Diane and Jim Downey.

His favorite place to charitably give was the St. Judes Children’s Research Hospital.

Family and friends will be received for a memorial visitation on Sunday, October 15, 2023 from 4:00pm – 8:00pm at the Bronson and Guthlein Funeral Home of Milltown.  Final disposition is private.
