Mr. Genzale, a Burien resident since 1966, owned a produce stand at 35th Avenue Southwest and Southwest Barton Street in the Westwood area of West Seattle. The family also sells Christmas trees at that location.

He previously owned Tony's Market at Southwest 128th Street and Ambaum Boulevard Southwest in Burien.

At the time of his death, Mr. Genzale was vice president of the sewer district board. He was first elected to the sewer commission in Nov. 2003.

His term was set to expire at the end of 2015. The two remaining commissioners will appoint a replacement, who will have to run for election to keep the seat.

Mr. Genzale's election in 2003 marked a stabilizing of the board after he defeated one commissioner and voters recalled another commissioner. Bill Tracy remained as the third commissioner.

According to family members, Mr. Genzale passed away at his Burien home with his wife and two children at his side. Updates on arrangements are available at http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/anthonygenzale
