Dear Anthony, I hope you're relieved from all the suffering you had to go through. You're in God's hands now and as a guardian angel, I'm sure you'll still take good care of your wife and children. Tipping hat, sir.

Dear Anthony, if you can read this... I don't know. But you are a great man. I remember how you're always happy, positive and your great ability to reflect this to the people surrounding you, even though if it was through a screen.
It's a dire loss for the world, that this man is now somewhere else. But we all shall speak with eachother once more. Untill then, your hat is safely in the hands of your lovely family.
Stay strong Cindy. And keep his hat dustfree.
<3

Dear Anthony,

It is time for you to rest below God's wing now. I cannot possibly explain how deeply it saddens me to say goodbye to you for the last time, but you are one of the greatest and warmest souls I've known, so I know you can rest now.

Dear Cindy and kids,

If I cannot begin to explain how much sorrow I feel, I do not want to imagine how bad it must be for you. My prayers will be with you, from now on forever.


Yours faithfully,
Dennis

DPR my friend, you were the happy voice on teamspeak. I miss you and have to listen to the echo of laughing. It will not fade but sound eternal in our heart. You touched us like your dear wife Cindy did with her post. May she gain all the strenght and love to pull herself through this time. And for your little ones, we will be there for them when the time comes.

I've already tried to express my feelings for Anthony and him passing away. He is a wonderful person and will live forever in you, your children and in each one of the persons that were lucky enough to know him like me.

If you ever need anything, just ask for it. We'll always find a way.

Cindy and Kids,

I read about anthonys passing and I knew I would see you again. We spoke this morning and My heart goes out to you. I remember when we were neighbors, I never ever heard one yell or anything out of the way from anthony and you seemed like the cutest couple I have ever met. I remember you talking about having your purple wedding and as I read it looks like you got your day. I always stumble on what to say to people when such a huge loss happens. You are in my thoughts and I hope over time your heart will heal and always cherish the time you and anthony shared. Surround yourself with family and friends and lean on them.

Cindy,
You don't know me but I dealt with Anthony through CC. I am deeply saddened by Anthony's passing. He was always a bright spot during any day. I considered him my friend and sometime confidant. I know how deeply he loved you and all the children, and remember how excited he was to marry you. My prayers are with you all.

My deepest condolences to Cindy, the children, and the Jones family. My thoughts and constant prayer is with you during this time.

Anthony will truly be missed! He was such a kind, genuine person…good hearted. When my brother was serving in Iraq, Anthony would always ask how my brother was doing and give me advice or a “pep” talk so I would be at ease.

I know and understand how difficult this is for you. May God continue to comfort and strengthen you always. One day at time…..

Love ~ CC (coworker) Family,

My brother was serving in Iraq a little over a year ago and was having difficulty communicating with the family. I was understandably upset and worried. Anthony found out and the next day brought me his personal PDA to mail to my brother. You see--my brother was HIS brother, too. Anthony, you are missed. May you rest easy knowing you are remembered and loved by so many.

I did not have the pleasure of meeting Anthony in person but I feel I got to know him pretty well on the phone after chatting no less than once a day for so many years. He constantly bragged about what a wonderful family he was blessed with and I know he will be watching over all of you forever. To the one and only puddin', you will live in my thoughts and prayers forever.

Dear Jones Family:

I was fortunate to see "Ant" before he passed and tell him how much he is loved. Thank you for giving me the opportunity.

He grew up in front of my eyes as he and my son, Shawn, were very close friends since school. Ant was a kind, generous, loving person.

I know this is an extremely hard time for the family and he will be greatly missed. I also know that he is in a beautiful, peaceful place and looks over you now and always.

He is not gone, only out of sight.
