Joseph Anton Obituary
Joseph T. Anton
Beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend;
He was the loving husband for over 53 years of Pauline A. (Novick) Anton, who survives him.
Born in Lowell, Massachusetts, January 7, 1948, the son of the late Carroll and the late Eva R. (Gosselin) Anton, he attended Lowell schools and was a graduate of Greater Lowell Technical High School.
Prior to his retirement, Joe was a truck driver for many years with Zambino Sand and Gravel. Previously, he had worked with Gagnon and Sons.
His two passions were music and cars. From an early age he played music and was a member of many bands throughout his musical career.
However, his greatest joy was when he was with his family, especially his grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Besides his wife, Joe is survived by two daughters Lisa M. Poitras and her husband Michael of Dracut and Laurie A. Haas of Swanzey; six grandchildren Nicholas, Andrew, Kaylee and Fayth Poitras, and Mark and Daryl Haas; two great grandchildren Rylee and Marcellus; a goddaughter Paula Dalke; a brother Michael C. Anton and his wife Andrea of Dracut; and several nieces and nephews.
He was also the bother of the late Robert F. Anton who died two days after him on January 12, 2021 and the late David Anton and the late Daniel Anton.
Due to gathering restrictions, all Funeral Services were held privately for the family. A Celebration of Joes Life will be held at a later date when it is safe for family and friends to gather. E-condolences at www.odonnellfuneralhome.com. Arrangements by the ODONNELL; FUNERAL HOME LOWELL MA (978) 458-8768.
