Nd\u00ebrsa gruaja e tij Ester Athanas, nj\u00eb grua e shquar e komunitetit shqiptaro-amerikan, vdiq m\u00eb 1 n\u00ebntor 2004 n\u00eb mosh\u00ebn 91-vje\u00e7are n\u00eb sht\u00ebpin\u00eb e saj, mbas nj\u00eb jete martesore prej 64 vjet\u00ebsh bashk\u00ebjetese me zotin Anton.

Anthony Athanas ishte nj\u00eb figur\u00eb qendrore n\u00eb organizat\u00ebn panshqiptare Vatra dhe bashk\u00ebthemelues i organizatave t\u00eb tjera shqiptaro-amerikane.<\/p>\n

Ai vdiq n\u00eb sht\u00ebpin\u00eb e tij n\u00eb Swampscott pas nj\u00eb beteje tre-vje\u00e7are me s\u00ebmundjen e alcajmerit.

Kryetari i Bashkis\u00eb s\u00eb Bostonit e quajti Athoni Athanasin, nj\u00eb tradit\u00eb n\u00eb vetvete, pasi ky restorant, tha ai u kthye n\u00eb nj\u00eb mikprit\u00ebs t\u00eb mijra takimeve politike dhe ishte shum\u00eb bujar n\u00eb mb\u00ebshtetjen p\u00ebr komunitetin.<\/p>\n

Sekretari i Shtetit – ish Senatori i Mase\u00e7ustiti, miku i Athanasit, John Kerry u shpreh kur vdiq legjenda shqiptare n\u00eb Amerik\u00eb, se :\u201dAnthony Athanas jetoi \u00ebndrr\u00ebn amerikane dhe p\u00ebr asnj\u00eb minut\u00eb nuk harroi se nga kishte ardhur.

Antoni Athanasi ishte nj\u00eb dishepull i Nolit dhe u frym\u00ebzua shum\u00eb thell\u00eb nga veprimtaria, puna, kultura dhe idealizmi i Nolit. Athanasi i p\u00ebrkiste nj\u00eb familjeje q\u00eb u p\u00ebrzu nga grek\u00ebt n\u00eb vitin 1913 kur u b\u00ebn\u00eb masakrat, pra ishte nj\u00eb familje e vuajtur dhe kjo e shtynte t\u00eb p\u00ebrpiqej p\u00ebr t\u2019i shp\u00ebtuar shqiptar\u00ebt nga rreziqet e fqinj\u00ebve.
\nAi kishte nj\u00eb krenari dhe ndjenja t\u00eb thella shqiptare prandaj e gjente koh\u00ebn, sado i z\u00ebn\u00eb q\u00eb ishte. Kishte edhe kapacitetin financiar dhe moral q\u00eb t\u2019i kushtohej Vatr\u00ebs, e ndjente k\u00ebt\u00eb si detyr\u00eb. Antoni Athanasi ishte trash\u00ebgimtari i Nolit n\u00eb Vat\u00ebr, ishte ai q\u00eb i siguroi jet\u00ebn Vatr\u00ebs p\u00ebr shum\u00eb dekada.<\/p>\n

Ai ishte edhe nj\u00eb amerikan i shquar, g\u00ebzonte nj\u00eb reputacion shum\u00eb t\u00eb madh n\u00eb Amerik\u00eb, ishte ndoshta njeriu m\u00eb i suksessh\u00ebm n\u00eb biznesin e restoranteve. Ishte nj\u00eb filantropist i pakursyer q\u00eb ndihmonte n\u00eb shum\u00eb an\u00eb. K\u00ebshtu, ai n\u00eb Boston \u00ebsht\u00eb nj\u00eb nga figurat m\u00eb t\u00eb nderuara dhe njihet n\u00eb t\u00eb gjith\u00eb Amerik\u00ebn si nj\u00eb figur\u00eb e shquar.<\/p>\n

Restoranti i tij Pier 4 \u00ebsht\u00eb nj\u00eb nga restorantet m\u00eb t\u00eb mir\u00eb ku vijn\u00eb njer\u00ebz nga t\u00eb gjitha an\u00ebt e Amerik\u00ebs. Antoni Athanasi \u00ebsht\u00eb b\u00ebr\u00eb nj\u00eb legjend\u00eb n\u00eb Amerik\u00eb. Ka qen\u00eb shum\u00eb i aft\u00eb dhe shum\u00eb dinamik, njeri q\u00eb nuk harxhonte koh\u00ebn kot me fjalime t\u00eb gjata. Edhe n\u00eb mbledhjet q\u00eb b\u00ebnim ne kur bisedoheshin \u00e7\u00ebshtjet e ndryshme \u2013 ju e dini si e kan\u00eb zakon shqiptar\u00ebt q\u00eb i zgjasin bisedat \u2013 ai i binte shkurt dhe hynte drejt n\u00eb tem\u00eb. Ishte tamam njeriu me vetit\u00eb e individit t\u00eb suksessh\u00ebm, kishte veti natyrore dhe ishte njeri i rrall\u00eb.<\/p>\n

Z\u00ebri i Amerik\u00ebs: Sot n\u00eb Shtetet e Bashkuara vijn\u00eb shum\u00eb emigrant\u00eb t\u00eb cil\u00ebt \u00ebnd\u00ebrrojn\u00eb t\u00eb b\u00ebhen t\u00eb njohur, t\u00eb krijojn\u00eb bizneset e tyre dhe t\u00eb pasurohen. \u00c7far\u00eb mund t\u00eb m\u00ebsojn\u00eb ata nga Antoni Athanasi?<\/p>\n

Agim Karagjozi: Ata mund t\u00eb m\u00ebsojn\u00eb k\u00ebt\u00eb gj\u00eb, q\u00eb me talent dhe me p\u00ebrkushtim dhe me pun\u00eb t\u00eb pakursyer mund t\u00eb arrihet \u00e7do gj\u00eb. Antoni ishte p\u00ebr t\u2019u habitur. Ja se \u00e7\u2019tregonte ai n\u00eb nj\u00eb rast: kur arriti t\u00eb ket\u00eb restorantin e tij t\u00eb par\u00eb, nj\u00eb restorant fare i vog\u00ebl, ai punonte aty fare i vet\u00ebm. Rrinte te banaku dhe th\u00ebrriste me z\u00eb t\u00eb lart\u00eb, gjoja sikur po i jepte porosin\u00eb gjellb\u00ebr\u00ebsit.<\/p>\n

N\u00eb fakt, ai nuk kishte gjellb\u00ebr\u00ebs, por pasi th\u00ebrriste porosin\u00eb, vraponte vet\u00eb n\u00eb kuzhin\u00eb q\u00eb t\u00eb p\u00ebrgatiste gjell\u00ebn p\u00ebr t\u2019ua sjell\u00eb mushterinjve. Ishte njeri me kapacitet, me talent, pun\u00ebtor, i zgjuar, i gjall\u00eb, i zoti dhe nuk e harxhonte koh\u00ebn kot. Si rrjedhoj\u00eb e k\u00ebsaj, erdhi koha kur ai arriti t\u00eb ket\u00eb n\u00eb Boston kat\u00ebr restorante. Ai nd\u00ebrtoi restorantin Pier-4 n\u00eb Boston, i cili \u00ebsht\u00eb gati si nj\u00eb monument n\u00eb Amerik\u00eb, nj\u00eb vend pelegrinazhi ku shkojn\u00eb njer\u00ebz nga t\u00eb gjitha an\u00ebt e Amerik\u00ebs p\u00ebr t\u00eb ngr\u00ebn\u00eb nj\u00eb drek\u00eb a nj\u00eb dark\u00eb.<\/p>\n

Njer\u00ebzit shkonin atje edhe thjesht p\u00ebr d\u00ebshir\u00ebn q\u00eb kishin p\u00ebr t\u00eb takuar Antoni Athanasin, sepse ai rrinte n\u00eb restorant dit\u00eb e nat\u00eb, nga ora 6 e m\u00ebngjesit e deri n\u00eb mbr\u00ebmje kur mbyllej. Ai rrinte atje p\u00ebr t\u00eb pritur e p\u00ebrcjell\u00eb vet\u00eb mysafir\u00ebt. Njer\u00ebzit kishin nj\u00eb ndjenj\u00eb krenarie dhe k\u00ebnaq\u00ebsie q\u00eb t\u00eb takonin Antoni Athanasin. Nuk ka personalitet amerikan q\u00eb t\u00eb mos ket\u00eb qen\u00eb n\u00eb restorantin e tij, qoft\u00eb personalitete politike apo t\u00eb artit, njer\u00ebz t\u00eb Hollivudit e t\u00eb tjer\u00eb. N\u00eb restorant do t\u00eb gjesh t\u00eb gjitha fotografit\u00eb e k\u00ebtyre njer\u00ebzve t\u00eb shquar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
