PUNTA GORDA, Fla. A longtime western Nebraska newspaper publisher, Marc Anthony, has died at his home in Punta Gorda, Fla.

A spokesman for the Roberson Funeral Home in Punta Gorda, Fla., said Wednesday that Anthony died Saturday at the age of 71.

Anthony had led the Star-Herald in Scottsbluff, Neb., for 20 years and had been a founding member of the Oregon Trail Community Foundation.

He and his wife, Sandy, moved to Louisiana after he left the Star-Herald in 1991, then they retired to Florida eight years later.

Anthony is survived by his wife, two sons and a daughter, three grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
