My heart and prayers have been with the family of Anthony. Anthony touched my heart. I had the pleasure of meeting him. When I was working at Parker Memorial. Such a bright light in this dim world. He truly made an impression that'll always be with me. I think of him often. Will forever hold onto, his jokes, funny laugh, and caring nature. Only positive memories I carry.

We were fortunate to have had the opportunity to get to know Anthony this past summer at the All Pro Sports/Kevin Ollie Basketball camp held at Loomis. He was one of the kindest, most appreciative & respectful young men we have ever had attend our camps. Not only was he a talented basketball player, but more importantly a great role model for young people off the court. We were so saddened to hear of his passing. He always had a ball in his hand....and of course there's that infectious smile.... He will be dearly missed but fondly remembered.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and many friends. We were all so very blessed to have known him.


"When you think of my 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 be no flowers, unless there was some rain." ~

We had the pleasure of getting to know and watch Ant playing during AAU this past summer. He was a talented basketball player on the court and a wonderful young man off the court. Our hearts broke when we heard of his passing. I can still see Ant dribbling up and down the court with his ever present headband on. He will be missed but always remembered.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. We hope you can find some strength in knowing how loved Ant was. We were truly blessed to have known him.

I am hurt; I swear I do not know what to say. I just cannot believe it. When my son Phil came home that Sunday from the game and got the call, I started praying for you instantly. Ant was like my son, always @ my house on Bellevue and in Bloomfield when I moved. I just saw Ant on his birthday standing in my son room getting ready to go to the movies. I am hurting. I am so sorry that you are gone I swear this hurt so badly. You were such a sweet Youngman. Ant I will miss you so very much. I love you, and I will always keep you in my heart. May God Bless your family. To Ant mother I never had the pleasure to meet you but you had one beautiful and loving son. Ant I love you baby.

To the family,

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Anthony was a remarkably young man whose footprints were left on the hearts of many. May you be assured that his death was not in vain, for someone's life will be transformed by this tragic event.

May we as a society, find away to reach, and lead our children to the path that was prepared for them, before they were formed in our wombs. There is a great destiny that awaits each and every one of them, and it is our job to help mold and shape them to be productive and responsible, and successful in every area of their lives.

Father, we pray for unity for our young children who are the cream of the crop. Keep your hands upon every single one of them. Cover them under the shadow of your mighty wings, and protect them from hurt, harm and danger. Father, I also pray that you give every parent everything that they we need to raise our children to be what they were destined to be.

In Jesus name, amen!

God bless you all!

To the Family:

My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of grief. Anthony was a good young man with a lot of potential on and off the basketball court.
It is truly a shame that his life was cut short. He will truly be missed and never forgotten by his friends.

The lord will see you through the difficult time.

its hard to believe that ant could just go like that he was the only dude that i realy wanted to chill with when ever i was with my friends i would ask if ant was comming too but unfortuantly this had to happen he was the best ball player i knew i would always wonder how did he do that or how can he jump so high and he would just tell me "im just nice" and we would just laugh about it . it certainly wont be the same without him and
my condolences go out to the family
