Anthony Richard Subia

11/19/2021

Anthony Richard Subia, 46, a resident of Bayard, NM entered eternal rest Wednesday, November 10, 2021 at UNM Sandoval Regional Medical Center in Rio Rancho, NM. Anthony was born and raised in Riverside, CA where he became a father of four at a young age, two girls and two boys. In 2004 he followed his two older daughters to Grant County and never went back. That day Grant County gained a respectful, kind hearted, humble individual. Anthony was truly one of a kind, and anyone who knew him would say the same. Once he befriended you there was no getting rid of him, and who would want to. He never spoke bad about anyone and would help you out as best he could. Anthony was a family guy. Those who were lucky enough to have crossed paths with him would tell you that his kids were the most important thing in his life. They were his sole purpose of living. He would do anything for his children. He was the best Dad and friend anyone could ask for. While here in Grant County he fathered three more children, two daughters and a son. Seeing Anthony with his kids and to see the happiness of being a father would bring warmth to anyone’s heart.

Anthony worked for Sun Valley Hardware for most of his time here. Not only was his customer service awesome; but also his ability to repair small engine equipment. He explained his knowledge and became one of the store top stove salesmen. He wouldn’t try to sell you just any stove; but would make sure you were getting what was best for you and you loved ones. He would install and repair not only the stoves his stores sold; but any stove a customer asked him to. He was a hard worker and worked hard to provide for his family. He would say “I work hard for the things we need, then work harder for the things we want.” His mind was always at wonder. His conversation would get pretty deep, and that’s because he was the “What if” guy. He would hear a story and then say “well what if this or what if that”. He could never let it be just a simple story.

He loved to hang out with friends and family, drink beer and watch some football, or grill up some food. He was a loyal fan of the Dallas Cowboys and would defend his team no matter what just like he would defend a friend if he needed to. Anthony death has andy will leave a huge void in many people’s hearts. He will truly be missed by all.
