Sandy, Dave, and Tony Sr.


God has called his Angel home but please know what a wonderful Son you have raised, that says a lot one of the kindest & caring young man that anyone could know. I will always remember him as a happy kid with that big beautiful curly hair I called his “fro”

The last time me and my girl's got to see Tony he laughed and told some jokes and I said to him your just like my Dad love to make people laugh and he said yeah that's were I got it from my (Grandpa Randy) and he laughed some more.

At anytime are anyplace (bank, store, concert) if he seen me I would hear a scream from a cross the room “Hey Aunt Minnie!!!! And I would love it that was my Tony.

I was proud to have Tony apart of my life and my kid's life we loved him so, if I know Tony he will continue to watch over all his family from heaven above, we will miss you are Angel.



LOVE YOU
Aunt Minnie,
Somone, Keyonna

Tony was a wonderful person. I have known him for about 35 years when he and my son Buddy were just Freshmen at Hiram Johnson High School. It seemed like Buddy, Tony, Gary, Matt & Sharon were always together and they spent a great amount of time hanging out at my house. I have fond memories of them waiting in line at Memorial Auditorium to get front row seats for concerts and they even brought us (their moms) to a few (very special times). He became like a son to me and called me momma Dee. Tony had a heart of gold and was always there for his friends and family even if he had to do without. I don't think he had the ability to say no to family and friends. I can honestly say that I have never heard anyone say anything bad about him which is a very rare trait. He will truly be missed by everyone whose life he touched. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family during this sad time.

Anthony Andrade III Family,
I as well as my family send our deepest sympathies to you and your family during this time of sorrow. May God Bless and hold you all tight during these trying times, as he's now holding Tony. Although I haven't seen him lately, we often kept in touch through text. We called it "CHECK IN TIME", and did not finish until one or the other acknowledged receipt. I'll always remember him for being Straight Up and REAL (a trait very hard to find in most people these days), and ALWAYS,ALWAYS,ALWAYS having my back covered,like it or not, even when I was unaware:). Well, The Sweet Chariot has swung down and he definitely caught a ride to where many we hold dear now reside. Forever now watching and guiding you and us all. Congratulations to the heavens. Another angel has earned his degree and he goes by the nickname "BIG T.".

Blessings,with all of our love, Michael Durham and Family, Elk Grove/Sacramento, California

May God Bless our other son. You were
always a ray of sunshine in our lives.
Our favorite memory of Tony was the look on his face when he picked up his first nugget of gold in the stream. Such fun and love you gave to all of us while you were growing up and raising your kids and grandkids. You will be with us forever. All our love, Mom and Dad Watkins

Tony is one of Gods special Angels. He did anything for anyone. He touched everybody's heart. Our last conversation he said to me, "guess what Cat, I'm all grey now and do you know what, i don't even care because I look like Sean Connery now" We both laughed because he new I love Sean Connery. That was Tony, love to make you laugh. God has blessed us all to allow us to be able to call Tony our friend, father, husband, and MOST of all son. You're home Tony. Until we meet again.....
