Anthony Ryan Rehm

September 5, 1995 - December 15, 2021

Anthony Ryan Rehm, 26, of Cape Coral, FL, passed away unexpectedly on December 15, 2021 from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. 

Anthony was born on September 5, 1995 in Vineland, NJ where he was raised and graduated from Vineland High School in 2012.

He was very skilled and excelled in everything he did.  As a young man, he learned the trade of carpentry from his father, which he later pursued as a career.  He also worked in the plumbing trade.

He had a deep appreciation of music and was an extremely gifted guitarist.  He loved jamming out alone in his room, in the Studio with Crazy Mike, or with the many friends he traveled the country to play with.

Anthony was also an avid traveler and skateboard enthusiast.  He spent time traveling the country’s skate parks.   He showed off his talent across the country including Philadelphia, LA, Florida, and everywhere in between.  His love and talent were evident and his passion was raw.

Family was also important to Anthony.  In his younger years, he had the opportunity to spend a summer in Majorca, Spain with his cousins Nina and Victor and the rest of his extended family.  This trip was nothing short of amazing and those memories would last him a lifetime.  He also enjoyed riding motorcycles, specifically dirt bikes, with his father and brothers, in NJ and Florida. He especially enjoyed riding his dad’s Harley Davidson Motorcycles when in Florida. 

Anthony’s love for animals was evident.   He bonded with all living creatures that he crossed paths with.  He especially loved German Shepherds which he had several of throughout his life. Hobart, who represented a loyal companion and Junior, who was as wild and free as the wind, just to name a couple.  Anthony’s most recent companion, Shiva, who he rescued, also passed away in the accident.

Anyone who knew Anthony, knows he was kind, brilliant and artistic on multiple levels.  Family and friends will miss Anthony more than words can say.  The world got a little darker without this bright Star in it. 

Anthony will be missed by his loving and devoted father, Anthony (Tony) Rehm and Gina Rehm; mother, Neva Presson; sisters, Stephanie Ingemi (Nicholas Repp), Nicole Kinkade (Kit Garcia); loving brothers, Tyler Rehm, Ronald (RJ) Santini Jr ( Andrea Smirnov-Santini); nieces, Khloe Kinkade; Melanie and Nicolette; nephew, Axel Santini;  aunts and uncles, John and Rita Rehm, Nicholas and Denise Rehm; great aunts and uncles, Marlene and Jack Michaels, Fran and Joe Andoloro; as well as  many cousins.

Anthony was predeceased by his beloved grandmother, Arlene (Orlandini) Rehm and the late John Rehm; uncle William (Babe) Orlandini (Barbara); Al Orlandini (Marion); Walter Rehm (Diane); Rosemary Rehm (George Merklein) and his precious cousin, Dallas Rehm.

Contributions in memory of Anthony can be made to:  Boards for Bros (boards4bros.org); The Skatepark Project (skatepark.org); or the animal foundation Bestfriends.org

A Celebration of Life will be announced at a later date

    There are no words that can possibly be said to the family to comfort them in this time of immense loss. This beautiful child was taken too soon and the world has lost a beautiful light and is now dimmer than it was before.

    I cannot stop thinking of Anthony and how Arlene loved him. To read all the beautiful comments about him which none of us really knew we’re all so beautiful. He knew what he wanted to do and accomplish all of that. Tony, you should be so proud and will have all his memories. Love, Auntie 🥲

    I got to work along side Anthony for a year or so during his stay with us here in Alabama throughout 2020
    We became good friends and he was great to be around
    Talked about his dad quite often, and the work they did together, loved music and skateboarding
    Our family will miss him..

    Rest easy homie!

    I am so sorry for the loss of this young man. I am from Mississippi and the accident was on the news and paper. I read his obit and, Anthony seemed like a wonderful, free spirit that will be missed so much by many. Prayers of comfort for his family and loved ones. Also, reading about his love for animals and knowing his companion passed with him, lets me know, they are still together, and this is a very rare thing to hear about. God bless all~
