Dear Elena and family - Gosh, this is so hard to digest for me I can't imagine how you all are coping. I work with Katie and boy has this been such a difficult time for her also as she has told me that Anthony was like a brother to her and how close she is to the family. It saddens me to see her so sad and confused. Words are so hard to express to someone suffering from such a tramatic loss. I grieve with you all. Take care, Diane Lucas

Dearest Elena and family-
I've come to know Anthony through Katie's accounts of life with Elena. How dear someone you've never met can be. May this Eskimo legend bring comfort:
"Perhaps they are not the stars,
but rather openings in Heaven
where the love of our lost ones
pours through and shines down
upon us to let us know they are happy.”

John, Karen, Elena and the entire family, I haven't known you people for a long time, but feel very close. I can't imagine your pain right now. But hopefully in time those crazy tears will bring smiles. Know that I am only next door and at anytime just come in. Lean on the people who love you and who you find comfort. Anthony was a special kid, that I know only have meeting him a few times. But always so nice. God must have a plan for him. We will all know what that was in time. Please find some comfort knowing so many people care and the pain your feeling with the grace of God will let you smile and go on. I am only a knock away.

Dear Crupi Family-
Our hearts are broken and our thoughts and prayers are with you during these incredibly difficult times.
Anthony was part of our extended Suissvale family. Even though I realized I haven't seen his smiling face since we snuck a cigiarete together at David's funeral gathering, I will never forget how excited he was about all the wonderful things going well in his life. I won't forget the smile on his face.
He seemed to have grown up over night. He went from a round little boy swimming his days away at the lake to a tall handsome young man barely visiting us in NH because as we all new...Anthony fell in love.
My deepest condolences.
We will all miss him so much.

Dear John, Karen, & Elena,
I can only imagine your pain. There is nothing more tragic and painful with the loss of a child. There is a special bond and love that parents have with their children and it is everlasting. I am so sorry for all your pain and suffering. Please know that Michael and I are here for you now in your time of need and anytime after.... Anthony was a kind and caring young man. His memory will live on forever. God Bless all of you.

A Message From Your Son:
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; it's just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy or sad just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.

That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome and love you.""

When you think of my short life on earth, and all those loving years,
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.

But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain. Remember there would never be beautiful flowers, unless there was some rain.

There are many rocky roads ahead and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
But always remember I'm walking in your footsteps only a half a step behind.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low, give them comfort and lend a hand to help them as they go.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going to be alone ....you're coming home to me.
