For the short time I knew Anthony a trusted colleague and friend. More than simply a work relationship but one that I and my wife Laura will always hold fondly.

Il ricordo è una catena d'oro
Morte cerca di rompere,
ma tutto invano.
Per avere, ad amare, e poi a parte
È il più grande dolore del cuore.
Gli anni possono spazzare via molte cose
Ma alcuni hanno wipe out mai.
Come i ricordi di quei tempi felici
Quando eravamo tutti insieme.

To the Cugini family: I am sorry for your loss. Although his work as director of the NETL required him to fly or drive over four hundred miles to meet senior executives and Congress, he also took time to befriend other staff who did not report to him. New people would sometimes try to greet him by his honorific title. Then he used his towering presence to reassure an otherwise startled new person that it was okay to call him by his first name, “Anthony”. Sometimes I would hear him exchange proud family stories especially about his family (like how his kids had made him proud) or care about charitable causes. An external testament to Anthony's towering legacy in the chemical engineering arts are at least forty-three inventions by other scientists and engineers throughout the US and around the world referencing Anthony's wit as an inventor on three US patents. Invisible testaments are from scientists and engineers who privately credit Anthony for some intangible inspiration (sometimes nonverbal) he had given them. As a neighbor near a vacant telework office that Anthony used when he was not traveling with an entourage to EOB, Hill or some other meeting, I will also miss him because he praised his family and cared for his community.

The Pettigrew family is sorrowing with you all in this deeply painful time. Our prayers are that Christ and his Mother, whom you have dearly loved, will draw close and kneel next to you in your grieving. May you know their presence even in the depths of your sorrows and trust that God's abiding love, which is ever drawing us into His tender embrace, has drawn up Anthony into the power and beauty and glory of His resurrection. You are a beautiful, Holy, inspired family and we have always admired the Cuginis for this. We pray one day you will together again find a day of rejoicing in your love for one another and in this great soul who has gone to meet his joyful maker. Peace be with you,
Dan, Rebecca, Olivia, Eva, Becket, Ivy, and Quinn Pettigrew

To the Cugini Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss of Anthony. He was truly a remarkable man. His devotion to his family and charitable causes always stood out as part of his tremendous contribution to those around him. I know his faith was important as well . He was a great leader and cared deeply about those that worked with him. As the former Assistant Secretary of Fossil Energy I know how much his intellect and leadership will be missed at NETL.

Ciao Anthony. Ricordo il bambino che ho conosciuto ad Alvito: con i capelli rossi e ricci eri già serio anche da piccolo. Ero sicuro che saresti diventato un uomo in gamba. Hai fatto onore a te stesso, alla tua famiglia, e un po' anche all'Italia dalla quale provengono i tuoi geni.
Abbraccio tutti i tuoi cari in questo giorno di grande dolore anche per noi che siamo lontani e non possiamo far nulla per alleviarlo.
Addio

Dear Julie & Family,
My heart aches and is broken over the loss of our friend, and your husband, father, son, brother, grandfather, and uncle. He was a good man, a man of integrity, a brilliant scientist – a sensitive person and still human like all of us. He lived the gospel and was so enthusiastic to help those less fortunate. "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.” Matthew 5:11
Anthony is truly blessed and will be remembered for his goodness and kindness to all of us here at Holy Family Institute.
