Anthony, for the short time I knew you, we celebrated huge events. You opening a business, your wedding, my daughter's first birthday. You were a good man, full of happiness, kindness, and your laugh and smile were contagious, and your company was welcomed and enjoyed. I think you may have lived a million years in your short life. You are remember not for the tragic ending but for the greatness along the way. See you again one day boss.

Dear Sally, Tony and Annrae, I have the fondest memories of Anthony… Especially, when he was working at the CME. All of my girlfriends were envious that I have such successful and handsome family members… One of my favorite photos that Diana and Jimmy have is with Anthony and Sammy at a wedding as little boys holding a cigar – it was too cute! Anthony is so lucky to have the mother, father and sister who love him and took care of him 24 hours a day… Such a special love and bond… My mother and father said the services were beautiful, the white flowers were outstanding and Annrae’s speech was touching to the very core of the heart. Words can’t express the sorrow I feel. I am so sorry for your loss… Love, Marianne Palumbo

Anthony , you were always so bright and present in our lives . You and Kevin were , by the true definition, life partners . I can honestly say that most of the memories that I have of Kevin , have you in them as well . I’ll never understand Gods plan or why any of this happens . Ever . I can only hope and pray that Kevin was waiting for you on the other side and I hope that you both are having just as much of an adventure in Paradise as you did together here on earth . Love , peace and eternal rest to you . Love , Christine

My beautiful and brave Brother Anthony, God blessed me with the most incredible brother in the world. I was allowed to have you in my life for 47 years and 10 months. I love you so much and am so proud of the Man you grew to be. I can’t even process the reality of you not being here. Your heart, determination, courage, strength, intelligence, generosity, and love is second to no one I’ve ever known. Without you, my life will never feel complete and my heart will be broken until the day I take my last breath on this earth. I will miss you every day until I see you again in eternal life in Heaven. You have all my love forever and always. XOXOXO AnneRae
