Obituary for Anthony F. Rossett
Anthony F. Rossett, 67, of Wenonah passed peacefully Saturday, February 8, 2020 with family by his side. Tony was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA. He attended Philadelphia elementary and high school parochial schools. After high school he went on to become a pipefitter, retiring from the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in 1992. He became a stay at home dad and loved spending time with Matthew. He enjoyed fishing, camping, watching football, playing the lottery and tinkering downstairs.
Tony enjoyed traveling with his family, visiting many amusement parks in the east when Matt was young. He traveled to Florida, Alaska, the Caribbean, New England, Yellowstone, the Southwest and most recently Mt. Rushmore, SD with Karen. He fell in love with Jackson Hole, WY.
He loved the Lord and has an intimate relationship with him. His men's bible study was extremely important, and the group was family to him. Helping others was a priority to Tony. He was a football coach for Anthony, a room parent for many of Matthew's classes, a member of several Mission trips and as a final act of service he was a Gift of Life donor.
He was well loved and will be missed by many. He is Home and in peace.
Anthony is survived by his loving wife Karen Rossett (nee Johnson); children, Anthony (Aimee) Rossett, Marcy Moore, and Matthew Rossett, sisters Janet Manuel and Dolores Veneri, his grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Tony was predeceased by his parents Frank and Mary Rossett, sister MaryAnn McElwaine, and brother Francis Rossett.
