I had known Anthony for 18 years and in that time he has made me laugh when I wasnt in a laughing mood, he also checked on me & my family regularly. He was definitly someone who I could vent to and he will truly be missed! I feel like I lost a family member. To his family, I hope you find peace in your sorrow and know that your father, son, brother & uncle touched people lives in ways that some people can only imagine. Thank you Anthony for your comforts, rest in peace my dear friend.

I had the honor of knowing Anthony as a stop on his Dunbar route. He was a great guy who always made me laugh. Anytime I was having a bad day Anthony would brighten it in our few minutes together each day. He will be sorely missed but always remembered. I am sur ehe is cracking up God and the angels with jokes as we speak. God bless and keep you Anthony.

I was very saddened to learn of Anthony's passing. I too had the honor of meeting Anthony through his job at Dunbar. I will remember him as a upstanding man who had a kind word for everyone and was very proud of his children--they were his pride and joy. To the family--my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. May God comfort you and put you at ease knowing that Anthony is with Him.
