Anthony C. Bregante ’50, a true gentleman with great love and integrity, was born in San Diego on July 1, 1928. He passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Jan. 13, 2011, after a long courageous battle with Mesothelioma cancer. Growing up in Little Italy, the son of Anthony and Ester Bregante, Anthony started working at a young age as a delivery boy for his family seafood business, Sunset Seafood Company Cocktails. After graduating from St. Augustine’s High School, he earned his bachelor’s degree from Santa Clara University. Shortly thereafter, he started a career with Great American Federal Bank that lasted over 30 years. Anthony found and married his soul mate, Kathleen Fleming, on June 29, 1969. Together they built their dream home and raised four beautiful children, instilling values (FAITH and FAMILY) for which they are forever grateful. Although Anthony’s passions included fishing in the Eastern Sierra and cooking, it was meaningless if these moments and memories were not shared with his FAMILY. Anthony was loved by all who knew him. His never-nding love and passion for his FAITH and FAMILY will never be forgotten. Preceded in death by his parents Anthony and Ester Bregante, Anthony is survived by his wife Kathleen and their four children, Christina, Julianne, Anthony and Paul, and eight grandchildren, and brother Richard, his wife and their two kids.
