Cecil I want to tell you how much I love and miss you. It's never a day that goes by that I do not think about you. It will be hard for me to get through this. Knowing your my third brother gone in less than 15 months. Everytime I walk in the house, I always look towards your room thinking the door will be open and I'll see you getting dressed. I miss how every morning you will wake me up asking where's the lotion and other things, and telling me to get up and come bring you to work. I've been with you for 19 years now I have to go the rest of my life without you here with me physically. I know you wanted to do better for me, keedy, Nile, mamma and lexis. Being your only sister, just made me feel so special to have a brother like you. You just left me too soon. My life is so different now without you. Your in a better place now. I just want you to be my personal angel. God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers. Well I am one of his strongest soldiers. You will forever live through me. Words can not explain how much pain I am. I try and smile everyday for you, but in the inside I feel so empty. I can go on and on Cecil. Just guide me and help me through life. I LOVE YOU CECIL. I am my brothers keeper.
Your sister NAJA

Nephew, my heart is so heavy, words can't explain. It is so surreal. The family is in so much pain, my sister (Annette) is in so much pain. We never imagined losing a child. Grandma Joan's house will never be the same. I wish this was a dream. Oh how I wish I could hear your raspy voice again. I know your in a far better place but I miss you so much. Say hello to paw paw Sorap and Grandma Edna Mae!
Rest in Heaven my love
How you can show support

I only met you a short time ago at work. You were such a pleasant person to see working and going about your day. Always polite and enthused about getting the job done. I was shocked to learn of your sudden departure, but more than that, heartbroken for your family and friends. I pray that God gives them the strength needed to endure losing you at such a young age. Rest, Anthony, in eternal peace! Sorely missed by many at work...

Although I've only known you for about 7 weeks, you left quite an impression on me. Maybe it's because I took you as a son, since I have a 21-year old son, myself. I miss passing you in the hallways while we worked; I was proud to see you working very hard. Others were saying you were doing a great job!As a mother, it was good to know you had dreams that you were trying to accomplish, and that inspired me as well. Although you were a little upset when people didn't speak to you or speak back, but I want you to know that you were missed those 2 days when no one held the door for me. I must say I was quite shocked to hear the news, I thought you had just taken off, or maybe even quit. I just want your siblings to know what you wanted for them. You told me that you wanted to be an example for them so that they don't make the same mistakes you made! And I respected when you said that you had turned your life around and was trying to do better. I am certain that we all can appreciate that. I would like to say thank you Anthony for allowing me to open my eyes a little bit wider to appreciate and put forth a better effort in trying to understand the things that my son may feel and experience. Thank you for allowing me to see through your eyes. Son, be at peace. May God strengthen your family at this time. Always in my prayers.

This is still so unreal to me cousin. Even though we fussed with each other and called each other names thats how we communicated. You knew that i loved you and i knew that you loved me. We are cousins. We done alot together even growing up as kids. I remember when i used to be so scared when you used to bring llayla to me after i got off from work cause yo crazy butt used to drive so fast. But i know for a fact that you would have protected her. I really miss you Cecil bruh. Your grandmas house will be so quiet without you. You were the life of that house. Every single day i hear you in my head saying something crazy and i just start busting out laughing. Yes, heaven has gained a beautiful angel. Cousin you were a beautiful person inside and out. I love you Cecil and you will most def be truly and greatly missed by me, yace, llyric and llayla.
