Anthony was born August 28, 1969, in Cedar Rapids, the son of MacArthur James and Katherine “Suzy” Beshears. He graduated from Washington High School in 1987, where he played football. After high school, he served in the US Army. Anthony was a spunky jokester who loved to be with his family. He enjoyed riding LIFTS with bus driver, Jim, and going to “work” at Milestones. In his free time, Anthony played board games, watched TV, cheered on his 49ers, and listened to music.

He was preceded in death by his father; mother; grandparents; and uncle, Bill Beshears.

Anthony loved to raise his glass and share a “Cheers” with everyone. His family shares a loving “Cheers” with all of the caregivers who have shared their love and compassion with him the last 25 years.
