Henry Antibas

It is with heavy hearts but joyful spirits that we celebrate the life of Henry Antibas, born on August 11, 1971, in the beautiful Marshall Islands, who passed away in peace on December 12, 2025. Residing in Batesville, Henry was known for his warm smile and infectious laughter, was a devoted husband to Brenda Antibas and a proud father to his sons, Banbious and Iris Antibas. He treasured the moments spent with his granddaughter, Gina, and grandson, Junior, leaving a legacy of love and memories that will be cherished forever. He is also survived by several brothers and sisters.

Henry was a man who embraced life to the fullest. He made his way to the United States, and in his work at a chicken plant, he became known for his dedication and hard work. But it was during his days off that he truly came alive-casting a line and enjoying the tranquility of fishing, connecting with nature in a way that brought him immense joy.

As we honor Henry's life, we invite all who knew and loved him to join us in remembering his spirit and sharing in his stories. A visitation will take place at Heath Funeral Home from Friday, January 30, 2026, at 12:00 PM until Saturday, January 31, 2026, at 2:00 PM, a time for family and friends to gather, reminisce, and celebrate the moments that made Henry who he was.

The funeral service will follow on January 31, 2026, at 2:00 PM, also at Heath Funeral Home, where we will come together in love, reflection, and celebration of Henry's remarkable life. He will then be laid to rest at Linwood Cemetery concluding the day's celebrations of his enduring spirit.

Let us come together to honor Henry Antibas, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend. His memory will forever live on in our hearts, and we look forward to sharing laughter, tears, and stories in the days to come.
