John Christopher Cantella

John Christopher “Chris” Cantella, 57, of Greensburg, passed away Friday, November 26, 2021 in his parents’ home after a tough battle with cancer.  He was born August 10, 1964 in Greensburg.  Chris had been employed by ARCO Enterprise where he had a supportive and caring crew of co-workers.  Chris had a lifelong love for dirt bikes, motocross racing, Mopars, hockey, and Harleys.  He was a very talented and detailed motorcycle artist able to do custom paint jobs.  Just last year he fearlessly re-entered motocross racing after a 31-year hiatus and was able to grasp a first place win!  He will be sadly missed by his loving family including both of his parents, Jack R. and Barbara E. Cantella; his three sisters, Debbie L. Frye and husband Bob, Amy M. Cantella, and Heidi A. Noel and husband Bob, all of Greensburg; and five nieces and nephews, Sara, Melissa, Jon, Jacob, and Alexis.  A private family visitation and funeral liturgy were held at the LEO M. BACHA FUNERAL HOME, INC., 516 Stanton Street, Greensburg.  The family would like to extend a special thank you to Chris’ friends and co-workers who reached out to him during his illness and offered help and prayers.  In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation, P.O. Box 1848, Longmont, CO 80502.  www.bachafh.com
