Anthony answered the Master's heavenly call on Friday, March 28, 2025, and entered his eternal rest.
Anthony began grade school at Melrose Elementary School and later attended Eastside High School. Anthony dedicated his life to serving his community through his love and passion for cooking. As a chef, feeding those dear to him filled his heart.
He celebrated life by gathering with family and friends to create special memories his favorite holiday was Thanksgiving and watching football with his mother, play fighting with his siblings, nieces and nephews. Holidays weren't complete until he picked an argument always and thought he was right. To know him is to love him and we will cherish all cherish our memories with him forever.

Douglas; grandsons, DeVaughn Douglas and Corey Caudle; granddaughter, Lyric D. Caudle; sisters, Maranda D. (Mose) Campbell, Tieaa Douglas, Angela Douglas, and Nikki (Ronald) Douglas-Chancy; brothers, Tyrone Thompkins, Jr., Kendrick Douglas, and Germaine (Svea) Douglas; aunts, Ella White and Parie White; uncle, Willie White; and a host of nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins, and sorrowing friends.
