Anthony J. Livreri

Anthony Joseph Livreri, 40, of Latham, New York, passed away unexpectedly in his home on September 3, 2024. Born in Albany, NY on August 14, 1984, he was the son of the late Robert A. Livreri and Donna M. Livreri.

Anthony attended Bethlehem Central School District schools from K-12, where he was a talented football player. He graduated from Bethlehem Central High School in 2002. Anthony worked for the Albany Department of General Services for several years before joining A&J’s Tree Service..

Anthony was a dedicated father and family man who cherished spending time with his children, the center of his world. He eagerly anticipated family functions, sporting events, and special occasions involving his kids, nieces, and nephews. He shared his love of football with his nephews by coaching their teams and enthusiastically cheering them on at their games. He was also a die-hard Raiders fan.

He enjoyed spending time with his brother and his extended family, which included many close friends. His vibrant personality made him the life of the party, and his presence always ensured those around him felt welcomed and had a great time.

A passionate supporter in the fight against breast cancer, especially after his mother’s diagnosis and survival, Anthony raised money and awareness through charitable events and annual walks. His motto was always "go big or go home," and he certainly lived by it, being nominated as “Mr. Pink” every year at the annual Pretty-in-Pink fundraising event. His time and dedication to the cause will not be forgotten.

Anthony was a loving and devoted father to Natalie Rose, 10, and Luca Angelo, 3. 

He is survived by his mother and best friend, Donna (Ranaldo) Livreri, his brother Vincent (Stephanie) Livreri, and his sister Stacy Van Cott. He also leaves behind his nieces, Madison and Marissa Van Cott, and nephews, Vincent and Valentino Livreri. Additionally, he is survived by many close uncles, aunts, cousins, and dear friends.

In addition to his father, Anthony was predeceased by both his paternal and maternal grandparents

Anthony will be missed more than words can say. He will forever be remembered as a fun-loving son, father, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend—someone everyone could count on in times of need.

Anthony's legacy of love, friendship, dedication, and strength will continue to inspire all who knew him.
