To the Wilkins Family:
God will see you through. I am saddened with the loss of Antonio. However we should think about the positive and happy times we had while he was here with us. Let this be a time of remembrance and celebration of his life. He was a fine young man. I'm glad he was affiliated with the Boys and Girls Club Spartans football Program. May God Bless you all during this time.

BY INSPIRATION, THESE WORDS WERE GIVEN TO ME BY ANTOINIO:
"I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD MAKE IT"
(AN OPEN LETTER FROM ANTOINIO)
"I NEVER THOUGHT IWOULDN'T MAKE IT,
I TRIED TO DO ALL THAT I COULD--
BUT "ODDS" THEY DON'T FAKE IT,
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GROW UP IN THE "HOOD."
I NEVER SAW I WOULDN'T MAKE IT,
I'D JUST GOT MY CALLIN'--
SOME DAY I WOULD BEAT THOSE ODDS,
'CAUSE Y'ALL KNOW I COULD DO SOME BALLIN.'
FOURTEEN AIN'T THAT OLD,
ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE ME--
GONE, ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS,
ONLY GOD KNEW, IT WASN'T TO BE.
SO I'VE LIVED MY LIFETIME-
HOW SHORT AND BITTERSWEET THE SPAN,
SOMEBODY LOOK OUT FOR MY MOMMA AND DADDY--
CAUSE, THEY JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND.
ON THIS OTHER SIDE OF MY LIFETIME,
I SEE CLEARLY WHAT I COULD NOT SEE-
THOUGH I HAD MY HOPES AND DREAMS,
GOD HAD A BETTER PLAN FOR ME.
I KNOW BECAUSE HE TOLD ME,
JUST A LITTLE WHILE AGO--
AT FIRST I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE,
BUT THE ANGLES SAID:"YOU HAVE TO GO"
NOT FOR ME, BUT FOR YOU,
MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS LEFT BEHIND-
AND ALL OF YOU WHO KEEP TRIPPIN'
AND THINK, THAT YOU HAVE TIME.
I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD MAKE IT,
MY DREAMS SEEMED SO SWEET--
BUT GOD HAD THE ANSWER,
NOT FOUND IN THOSE MEAN STREETS.
AS MUCH AS I LOVED EVERY ONE & THING,
AS MUCH AS I THOUGHT I WAS HAVIN' A BALL--
AS I LOOK AROUND THE HEAVENS I KNOW,
I MADE IT---AFTER ALL!
SO DON'T WEEP FOR ME,JUST BEAUSE I TELL YOU TO--
BUT SAVE YOUR TEARS FOR YOURSELF,
AND HOPE THAT YOU WILL MAKE IT TOO.
FOR IF FATE CALLED MY NAME,
AND IF MY TIME ON EARTH IS THROUGH-
REMEMBER DEATH HAS A PLAN,
AND SOMEDAY, WILL COME FOR YOU.
STOP ALL THE HATIN'--
AND YOUR LOVE FOR THE "HOOD,"
STOP TRYIN' TO GET OVER,
AND TRY TO SEE THE GOOD...
FOR WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE,
THERE'S ONE THING I SURELY KNOW--
WHEN THIS LIFE IS OVER,
THERE'S A PLACE WE ALL MUST GO.
WHETHER IT'S TO HEAVEN,
OF COURSE I CANNOT TELL--
BUT THE ONLY OTHER CHOICE YOU HAVE,
IS THE "PITS OF HELL."
I TOLD YOU THAT I MADE IT,
I SAW JESUS, FACE TO FACE--
NOT BECAUSE I WAS SO GOOD,
BUT ONLY BY HIS "AMAZIN' GRACE!"
SO I WANT YOU ALL TO "MAKE IT."
TO SOMEDAY COME HOME WITH ME-
FOR WITH MY PASSING YOU SHOULD KNOW,
THERE'S NO SPECIAL AGE, YOU HAVE TO BE!
YEP, I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD MAKE IT,
AND IT SEEMS BY GRACE IT'S DONE--
FOR DEATH TRULY LOST IT'S STING,
AS PROMISED BY GOD'S SON! (JESUS)
MAKE UP YOUR MINDS YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT,
DON'T LET ME HAVE DIED IN VAIN,
REMEMBER WHAT I'VE TOLD YOU--
EACH TIME YOU THINK MY NAME.
SO YOU TOO CAN MAKE IT,
AND ALL WILL NOT BE LOST--
JESUS PAID FOR US TO MAKE IT,WHEN HE DIED, AND ROSE FROM THE CROSS!
"ANTOINIO"

Remembering You
I find an old photograph
and see your smile.
As I feel your presence anew,
I am filled with warmth
and my heart remembers love.
I read an old card
sent many years ago
during a time of turmoil and confusion.
The soothing words written then
still caress my spirit
and bring me peace.
I remember who you used to be
the laughter we shared
and wonder what you have become.
Where are you now,
Where did you go,
When the body is left behind
and the spirit is released to fly?
Perhaps you are the morning bird
singing joyfully at sunrise,
or the butterfly that dances
so carelessly on the breeze
or the rainbow of colors
that brightens a stormy sky
or the fingers of afternoon mist
delicately reaching over the mountains
or the final few rays of the setting sun
lighting up the skies
edging the clouds with a magical glow.
I miss your being
but I feel your presence,
In whatever form you choose to take,
however you now choose to be.
Your spirit has become for me
a guardian angel on high
guiding, advising, and watching over me.
I remember you.
You are with me
and I am not afraid.

TO THE WILKINS FAMILY:
I DIDN'T KNOW ANTONIO OR HIS FAMILY, I SEEN THIS TRAGEDY ON THE NEWS AND IT JUST TOUCHED MY HEART. I AM PRAYING THAT THE LORD WILL BLESS THIS FAMILY AND GIVE THEM THE STRENGTH TO GO ON. REMEMBER THE LORD WILL NEVER PUT MORE ON US THEN WE CAN BEAR. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES WE WONDER WHY. I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THIS FAMILY. I HAVE ONLY HEARD GOOD POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT ANTONIO AND DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HIM. PEOPLE SAYING "HE WAS SUCH A SWEET PERSON THAT DIDN'T BOTHER ANYONE" THAT MAKES ME MORE SADDER, BUT KNOWING THAT HE IS IN HEAVEN WITH THE GOOD LORD PLACES A SMILE ON MY FACE. TO THE FAMILY TAKE CARE AND PUT ALL YOUR TRUST AND FAITH IN THE LORD AND HE WILL SEE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU THROUGH THIS. GOD BLESS YOU ALL

Dear Mrs. Wilkins,
Please accept my sympathy as you grieve for Antonio. He was a fine young man. My sons & I met him at our church's tutoring sessions. Football was all that kept him away from studying with Chris on Tuesdays!
November 2, 2006
To the mother of Antonio:
I am so deeply sadden to hear of your lost. I as a mother could not begin to tell you I feel the pain that you are going through. It is a pain that no mother would like to feel. GOD. He comforts us in so many ways. Allow him to do so for you. You are blessed in so many ways, dear. Just keep his memories close to heart and be strong for him. Because I am quite sure that's what he new his mother as ''A Strong Woman''. Keep your head up, GOD is there, it will be hard, but keep going on. GOD won't give you no more than you can handle. You and your family will in our prayers and GOD bless.

I am a mother of a Huntington student, your son went to school with my daughter, my nephew and my cousin. I am so sorry that this has happened and my family will keep your family in our prayers. Just know that he will be with you always spiritually if not physically. I only met him once but he was a very nice young man. As my family makes our move forward to a new life, we will pray for your strength at this time. A mother's heart never forgets. Blessed be, always, The White Family.
