Anthony Charles Correnti

Anthony “Tony” Charles Correnti, 51, of Laureldale, passed away Wednesday, June 3, 2026, at the Reading Hospital. 

Born on August 30, 1974, in Reading, PA, he was the son of Jane L. (Miller) Correnti and the late Alfred Correnti. 

Anthony was a 1993 graduate of Muhlenberg Highschool. During his working years he was employed by Laureldale borough in the Street Department. 

Anthony’s passion was all different types of racing. Everything from model car racing to Nascar was a hobby of his. Anthony's dream was to own and operate a slingshot car which he achieved with his brother Alfred. They both participated in dirt racing at Shellhammers speedway in the slingshot division. He was an avid fan of Grandview Speedway and also went to many races in Ohio, New Jersey, New York, and Indiana. His favorite NASCAR driver was Darold Waltrip, in the modified car division it was Billy Pauch and Freddy Brightbill, in the sprint car division it was Bobby Davis Jr.

When Anthony wasn’t racing or talking about racing he enjoyed spending time outdoors. He loved tending to his garden and growing vegetables. Some of his favorites were hot peppers, watermelon, cantaloupe, and egg plant. Anthony also found peace being near the water, where he would go fishing and crabbing. 

Surviving is one brother, Alfred R. Correnti, husband of Caren Bailey of Laureldale, PA. 

He is also survived by a number of aunts and uncles: Jenny (Miller) Binasiewicz, wife of Joe of Wyomissing; Charles Miller, husband of Mary Beth of Wilmington, DE; Liz Miller, partner of Sheila Dubell of Wyomissing; Marlene (Miller) Raymond, wife of Robert of Wyomissing; Evelyn (Miller) Jones, wife of Mark of Muhlenberg Township; Concetta George of Muhlenberg Township; and Marie Rocco, wife of Frank of Clearwater, FL. 

Also surviving are nine cousins: Joshua Miller; Meghan Costello; Mark Sauder; Daniel Sauder; Gabriel Graeff; George Syrellis; Haley Correnti; Caden Correnti; Chloe Correnti; and Reina Correnti.
