As a fourth-generation funeral director, Anthony is proud to continue his family’s tradition of caring for the North Shore community—a responsibility he considers both an honor and a calling. Following in the footsteps of his family, Anthony has carried on the tradition of compassionate, impactful care through his leadership at O’Donnell Funeral Home, as well as his commitment to community organizations serving veterans, the Salem Cemetery Commission, and many others. Outside of work, Anthony enjoys fly fishing, gardening, and always having music—usually pop or hip hop—playing in the background.

“Easing the burden of the families is why I do what I do. I get my energy from helping people and it is a true honor for them to think of O'Donnell in their most trying times. I’ve chosen this work to continue the legacy of caring that my great grandfather, both my grandfathers, Mr. Peterson, my uncles, and my dad laid.”
