Mr. Lisboa began his service to St. Edmund Prep in September of 2000. His 25 years at the Prep was marked by his dedication in the Foreign Language Department where he shared his love of language with his students, especially those in his AP and IB Spanish classes. He had a special place in his heart for those students who found themselves in detention. As detention prefect, he was firm but always looked at students through the eyes of mercy and love. Mr. Lisboa was more than just a classroom teacher. He sought out those students who were struggling, both in and out of the classroom. Whether it was a word of advice, a shoulder to cry on, or a humorous antic, Mr. Lisboa truly cared about every student he encountered.
We mourn Antonio's passing and ask the entire Prep community to keep him, his wife Marcy, his daughters Teyamo '23 and Kaysee and the entire Lisboa family in your thoughts and prayers.
Arrangements for Mr. Lisboa are as follows:
