In loving memory of Antonio “Tony” L. Cleveland I, who passed away surrounded by the love of family and friends…

Born to the late Janice McPherson and Charlie Cleveland, Tony built a career as a machinist and carried a lifelong passion for all things mechanical.

He was united in marriage to his beloved wife, Theraesa Jones-Cleveland, with whom he shared a loving, adventurous, and active life. Together, they built a beautiful family and were proud parents of Antonio L. Cleveland II and LaTia Porter.

Tony was devoted to his family, enjoyed working on cars and watching sports, and took great pride in Black history, culture, and heritage.

He leaves to cherish his memory his beloved wife, Theraesa Jones-Cleveland; his children, LaTia Porter and Antonio L. Cleveland II; his siblings, Shawn and his wife, Maria, Lakeyshia and her husband, Alexander, and Markeydia and her husband, Edward; along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, and dear friends.

Tony’s legacy of hard work, love for his family, and pride in his heritage will continue to inspire all who knew him.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered. May he rest in eternal peace.
