ANTHONY CATERER December 24, 1990 - August 24, 2013 It is with great sadness that we announce the tragic passing of Anthony on the late afternoon of August 24, 2013. The outpouring of grief and emotion from family members and friends in the ensuing days has been overwhelming, and the stories and cherished memories shared have revealed that Anthony was a treasured part of many lives. Anthony leaves his loving partner Alexa Hall, his son Keegan, his parents Kevin and Grace, his siblings Katelin, Mackenzie and Kyle, and numerous grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Anthony was a dedicated worker for River City Stone, as well he was a very dedicated musician. He was an amazing person who was always willing to bend over backwards for anyone who needed him especially his family and friends. The proudest and happiest moment of Anthony's life was the day his son Keegan was born. Keegan will know what a great man you were. Anthony you will be greatly missed but never forgotten. We ask that anyone who played with Anthony to bring their instruments and join us in a mass band to celebrate his life. We do ask that in remembrance of Anthony and his amazing life that you wear something purple as it was his favourite colour. Service for Anthony will be held on Tuesday, September 3, 2013 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd., Winnipeg, MB R2J 4J4. For those who wish to say a final goodbye we will have a viewing from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. and the service will commence at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a trust fund set up for his son Keegan.

  • Anthony was quite a man, he was always up to something or making people laugh. From his mooning people on the bus, to his ridding on car hoods, he was always an outgoing person. Know him for some time and never cared about what people thought or said he did what he pleased no matter where he went. He always made band gigs and practices interesting. When I heard Alexa and him were having a baby I was happy for them and knew they would make an amazing couple and amazing parents and - Posted by: Catrina ((Fellow band drummer)) on: Sep 05, 2013

  • One does not leave a funeral in the same way that he has come. He cannot help but have death on his mind. He cannot help but be aware that such is the end of all life. He may look at himself and have a new awareness that his body will not last forever. These thoughts are ones that humans must face and find a way to deal with. Some believe that the death is only the beginning of the next great mystery and the soul is eternal. Others take a practical view that death is all there is. One leaves a funeral with thoughts of life and its fragility on his mind. To Kevin Grace and Katelin Mackenzie Kyle I am so sorry to hear about your son/brother I wish I could be there for you. my heart goes out to you all. - Posted by: Michael Brey (Friend) on: Sep 03, 2013

  • I first met Anthony at his school in grade 5 or 6. He and his friends had snuck back into the classroom at lunch time and let out the class animals resulting in the doves perching on the lights. Tail feathers in hand they were caught. Anthony casually stated that the doves got scared when the frogs jumped to get away from the snakes. I then had the opportunity to watch him grow when he later joined cadets. He kept his curiosity, humour and carefree nature throughout the time I knew him as a cadet. I was very sorry to hear about his passing and my thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. - Posted by: Sarah Daeninck (Through Cadets) on: Sep 02, 2013

  • We often think as we grow as people. Did I make the right choice Today, and what if. We question what we do each passing day. All the choices we make lead us back home and what memories we make are by the choices we make daily. All of our paths will lead us all back to family and friends. Know this about you Anfhony (Anthony) all your family and friends will share your memory with your son. But most of all that you shared in life. This shall be shared always. Guide your family and watch over all of "us". Share what you know now with your son. The chief says later dude. - Posted by: carl (family) on: Sep 02, 2013

  • I remember when you were just a baby and and the first time you had a dirty bum, I was trying to practice being a good mom so I asked to change your butt..... Man did you stink yucky while u heaved every second doing it I finally got it done. Then I moved to Nova Scotia for a few years and when I came back you were a little man always trying to help with things and everything watching you through your teenage years you grew up to be a fine young gentleman mom and dad should be proud of you. You respected everyone and were the first to introduce yourself to people. The first time you met Carl you called him chief which is funny cause he is the only neechee I know that wanted to be white lol but he didn't mind he had his own name for you so ..... For that cracker haha. I remember when you came to the apartment you asked to borrow a few movies and I said sure and you were looking through them and I said put them back how they were or Carl will know that they were played with and you said no he won't when he got home from work the first thing he said who was messing with the movies the look on your face priceless you couldn't believe that he would know lol then when I moved into my house you and Clifford help set up the kids beds and you said never again auntie those beds suck lol they have new beds no worries hun. Watching you teach the kids to drum and everything else over the years too many stories to tell. I will truly miss you baby boy and I promise we will let keagan know how amazing his dad is when I can. Love ya Anthony rest in peace till we meet again - Posted by: Sange (Family) on: Aug 31, 2013

  • Back when I just turned 13 my mother told me to join sea cadets to gain more discipline and i asked her why should i? i wouldn't know anyone there. my mom told me my cousins Anthony and Katelin were in there and they could help me if i needed it. i then joined and got interested in the Pipes and Drums so i asked them where we go and they told me to go to the freight house to practice. when i arrived there i went straight for Anthony's Table and that is where he showed me how to hold a pair of snare sticks. i didn't like the "weird" way to hold the sticks so i moved to tenor and katelin got to teach me but again i left because the rope got too short and started to hurt my fingers and after a while i switched to pipes. i learned that for about a month then left after a couple months of not playing my sister and mom wanted to join so i came back but went for snare because i looked up to Anthony as a teacher and an idol. to this day he has taught me most of what i know on snare and whenever he came to visit us at PCY he would always put a smile on our faces he is truly a great drummer then shortly after we found out alexa got pregnant and we were happy for them 9 months later little keegen was born and by day 1 we all have been making bets on saying what he is going to be. (By the way Drummer) and throughout his life he will be reminded and he will know really soon his father was a great man, a great friend, a great role model, and a great cousin i am truly sorry for everyone's loss of one of the greatest people i have ever met. thank you - Posted by: Shane Hawley (Cousin) on: Aug 31, 2013

  • Anthony, if not for the cadet organization we would have never discovered what a wonderful person you were. A very talented musician with a genuine heart. Our condolences to your family. I'm sure you will be making sweet music in heaven, Cheers. - Posted by: The Agius Family (Cadet friends ) on: Aug 31, 2013
