Active Lakewood Board of Fire Commissioner member John L. Antonas has passed away this morning.
“It is with deep regret the Lakewood Fire District #1, Board of Fire Commissioners, announces the passing of Fire Commissioner John L. Antonas,” the Board of Fire Commissioners said.
Commissioner Antonas served with distinction on the Board of Fire Commissioners since 2016.
“As a former Assistant District Attorney in New York and a one-time Assistant U.S. Attorney in New Jersey, who represented fire departments and fire districts in private practice, Commissioner Antonas possessed a great deal of experience and expertise. He was an active and valued member of the Board who deeply valued the Fire District as well as the Community and his presence will be missed tremendously.”
Commissioner Antonas is survived by his wife Sharon, daughters Alaina and Beth and seven grandchildren. Arrangements are under the direction of Silverton Memorial Funeral Home in Toms River (732-255-6363).
Rest in peace. John was a great guy who added positive energy to the board.
Thank you Commissioner Antonas for your service to the Township of Lakewood and Lakewood Fire Department! Our sincere condolences to the Antonas family during this difficult time!
