Antonio Dwight Pressley was born February 14, 1970 in Cincinnati, Ohio to Juanita (Pressley) White, and the late Collie Minor Jr. He departed from this life on July 26, 2020.
Antonio (aka Tony) was a funny, shy, loving, and comforting man who had a great heart and spirit. He could light up any room with his warm smile and laughter.
Growing up his mother would find different electronic devices that were dismantled from his curiosity of knowing how they worked. However, he always knew how to put the pieces back together with no instructions. Tony was particularly good with his hands. He had a passion for cooking, updating, and fixing his car's audio systems, drawing sketches, building arts and crafts out any and everything, carpentry, listening to slow jams and more.
Antonio attended Withrow University High School, in which he later transitioned over to Cincinnati Job Corps to perfect his crafts. He later found love and married his former spouse Patrice (Hubbard) Pressley. The two were blessed with the birth of two beautiful daughters.
Until the time of his passing, Tony spent his career at First Student monitoring, and maintaining the safety and well being of the children in the community.
Our Beloved Tony leaves behind to cherish his memories and celebrate his life and spirit his daughters, Kierra Pressley and Janee’ Pressley; mother, Juanita White; brother, Aberdeen White Jr.; sister, Dorien (Minor) Duffy-Fairbanks; two grandchildren, Joshua Bibb Jr. and Kyron Bibb; nieces, De’ala White, Taylor Duffy, Carrington Duffy, and Maria Duffy; nephews, Samuel Fairbanks and Bobby Fairbanks; and a host of other family and friends.
