Dear Lisa, although I did not know Anthony personally, I feel like I have gotten to know much about him with all the times you spoke to me about how he was doing a few years ago and also the photos you have posted of him.
I'm sure those who knew Anthony will always remember him and I hope you find comfort & peace in the wonderful memories and photos you have of him. Anthony will always be looking down on you until you meet again!
Take care, Love Nick x

Rest in peace Anthony. I was in your childhood home the other day and I said a prayer for you. I have many memories of you, Nathan, Joanna and I. Many games of kick ball were played on Pearl ave, the street I live on this day. You will always be remembered with a smile.
Love, Shannon (Tomkinson) Dixon

Anthony,
You have touched so many peoples lives, including mine. The battle you had to fight was so unfair, but you did it with courage and love. To be able to help others the way you did was AMAZING to me. I am so glad i got the opportunity to be in your life. My last memory with you was at the spaghetti dinner, we were taking a picture, the room was filled with love for you and you stretched your arms out and said " the world is mine" and it truly is! Your smile will live on in our hearts forever. I can only hope i can raise my son into a great man the way your mom raised you! You are truly missed and loved dearly!

My dearest child,
I haven’t written in this yet myself. I am at a great loss of words and emotions since your death. If I could say anything to you if given that opportunity. I would say, we have had our battles, you have always made me take notice of your strength and kindness through any hard time. Your life's lessons and battles you did with optimism, warmth, concern for others, and gentleness that I miss so much. I love our friendship that reached beyond our mother-son relationship. I was so fortunate to have a young man who had concern and never ending love for me. We had a lot of obstacles placed in our paths along the way, but we did it. I will forever hold my head high as you made me tremendously proud. I would sit back sometimes and watch you with your friends or family and sometimes people you didn’t even know and comfort them, even on one of your bad days, without complaint or concern for yourself. You are an amazing person. I wish there were others that had the opportunity to appreciate your kindness.
The last night of your life with me, I know you suffered tremendously and I had the hardest time witnessing that, and would have done anything to avoid that for you. You didn’t deserve that. The entire evening is forever embedded in my head and haunts me to this day. When I whispered to you, "Please let go! Your battle has been long enough. I will be okay." and "I Love you"... and you slipped away physically at that moment and I leaned in and said "You are MY Spartan" I meant every word. That movie you made me watch over and over (300), taught me so much about who you were. The convictions you had. I only hope when I really recover from my loss, that I can be a true Spartan. People say I’m brave, courageous and they admire me. Between you and me, I was so desperate to keep you that I was driven by that one factor day in and day out. I wasn’t brave or courageous. YOU WERE!!
I miss you so much and can’t wait to be by your side again. You always made me feel like I had no worries when you had my hand in yours. I miss our talks and your laugh, your wit and your no non-sense way.
It brings me so much sadness to write this. Some how I have myself convinced its a letter I am writing to my child who is off somewhere and having many adventures versus my only loving son who is gone.
I love you to the end of my life and beyond. I miss your hugs so much. I can’t think of anything right now that I don’t miss about you. By the way, thank you for hiding that potato salad recipe. I found it under the draw where you hid it. What a shock, it made me cry and made me laugh when I thought about how you came up with that recipe. You are really something special. I really cant say it enough, I miss you so much. I just want you home.
Forever having my heart, your loving mom.
~
MOM,

I knew Anthony well growing up! I'm sorry for your loss and the worlds because there's not enough people like him around! My best memories of Anthony were playing basketball at Hammond Courts in Onset in which i never won. By far the best kid there!

Lisa, we were brought together because of our beautiful precious sons.. because of Anthony and TJ, we will be friends, sisters, confidantes forever...I believe that they are together watching over us and maybe this was their way of taking care of us after they were gone. I wish you could have known TJ as I was able to know Anthony..You are both a blessing to my life...love you both and will miss Anthony's joy and laughter that he brought to everyone who knew him.

Dear Uncle Anthony
I can only say I dont understand why you couldnt bring your cell phone to heaven so I could call and talk to you every day. I miss you so much. You were my buddy and always loved me the best! I draw pictures for you and put them up on your wall in your bedroom so you can see how much I miss you. Mommy says you are not coming home and I dont understand. I still wait for you every day! Our birthdays are coming and like the cake you had made special for me last year, mommy says she will have a special cake for the both of us again this year. I will miss you here with us on that day! My wish would be for you to come home. Mommy cries every day because you are not here. She is so sad and I cant make her as happy as you did. I try and will keep trying. I love you Guncle!!! xoxo hugs and kisses from Baby Anthony!

Anthony,
I never had the chance to meet you, and that is truly my loss. Through your Mom, your family and all those that new you, you blessed them and taught us all what it means to be strong and brave. I will forever remember all that I learned to know and love about you, and I will always be here for your Mom when she needs a friend. My Mom and Dad are also there in heaven with you, my Mom still comforts me on my darkest days as you will always do for your Mom. May God always show us your beautiful face when any of us need strength and bravery through our lives. I will not forget such a special young man that left this earth too soon. God Bless you and keep you always by his side.
With Love and Great Respect for you and your Mom.

Dear Lisa, I remember Anthony and his beautiful Italian garden dream.
I am so sorry to hear of his passing. We were all particularly touched by Anthony's strength and the love in your family. We will never forget either one of you.
As you navigate your grief, we hope that the memories of building your garden together will bring a little comfort to you.
Please keep in touch, you are part of the Dream Family now.
From the heart,

First and foremost I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sad to hear that you lost a wonderful son and a good friend. We take for granted the things and people around us. We want so much and appreciate little... but it takes a tragic loss to make us remember how small we are in this world. I was excited, but now upset that this is the way I made contact with Anthony Cimino. I will never forget the memories past, present, and future. I'd like to read something and put it as my eulogy to a kind and wonderful son, man, and friend.......
"may you always walk in sunshine and God's love around you flow, for the happiness you gave us, no one will ever know. It broke our hearts to lose you: but you did not go alone, because a part of us went with you, the day God called you home. A million times we've needed you. A million times we've cried. If love could only have saved you, you never would have died. The Lord be with you and may you rest in peace. Someday we will see your face again, and feel your gentle warmth, then our pain will CEASE.
I will miss you my friend, my brother and we will laugh again!!
LOVE ALWAYS,
KYLE COSTA
My heart goes to you and your family! Thank You

Hi Lisa,
Im sorry it took me so long to write, I just really didnt know what to say. I cant say I know how you feel because I dont think anyone that hasnt gone what you have gone through knows. Anthony was such a great guy with a huge heart, the pics you posted recently of him during his teenage years is how I remember him most. Always the best dressed kid with a smile on his face. I think about you often and cant imagine the lonliness you feel. I can only hope the memories you had together helps during those hard times. Anthony was so lucky to have you, and you him. Though I dont know you well the bond you both had with each other was so wonderful to watch. Heather always kept me posted on his condition and all the things that you did not only for him but the things you did to try to help other people fighting that nasty illness. Anthony is now your Angel watching over his Mom and I know things will never be the same for you but I do hope that as time passes they may get a little easier.
I look forward to seeing you next weekend and hope you have a safe trip. Love, Sarah

May peace and love be with you always.

I am so very sorry to learn of your son’s death. I have worked with Toni on many of your AA reservations for Anthony.
I do not have adequate words to describe the admiration I have for you and your son as he fought his courageous battle with cancer. Anthony was a very special young man~~~I can see that although he faced great adversity, he learned (too young) that his life was sacred and he must live it with intent and purpose.
You are an inspiration for all mothers, sisters, daughters~~~in the midst of extreme darkness and sorrow, you have shown that you are powerful beyond measure~~~your light shines brightly. Anthony was blessed to have the most special of Mothers.
May you find peace and solace, and the strength to keep your abundant spirit.
Warmest regards,
Betty

What a blessing to have known Anthony. All interactions with him were filled with love, beauty, purity and joy....that's just who he was.
Lisa, you did a phenomenal job on raising him and being by his side through all the tough times. You, also, are a phenomenal example of love-in-action. I pray and affirm that in time you will be filled with the peace and grace needed to feel whole again, whatever your new definition of whole may be. I'm looking forward to sharing memories of all the good times with Anthony on the 11th. See you then.
Rest in Peace Anthony....I love you and thank you for being the shining light that you were.

To "My Little Anthony" - I watched you grow up to be a strong, courageous, and terrific young man whose life was taken way too soon. You were always kind, polite, cheerful and BRAVE through out this whole ordeal. I loved you like you were my own. I can't stop crying and missing you so much. I keep seeing that beautiful smile and sparkling eyes. I will never forget the last time you were able to give me a hug in the hospital. I don't think I will ever get over this pain and sorrow. We were all so very lucky to have known and loved you. You are my HERO and Warrior. Lisa is my hero too. She was your greatest advocate, fighter, strength, caregiver and your loving mom. You two are great examples of strength and courage. I am and will always miss you. You can't imagine how much I am hurting and missing you. I pray that there is heaven and I will see you again. That is what is getting me through this. With all my love, your Auntie Carla

Dear Lisa,
I am so very very sorry to hear the news about Anthony. All of us at the Foundation think about you often and send our healing prayers to you and your family. It is so kind of you to write to us, especially sharing the stories of how Anthony always put other people first. We are so proud of his optimism, his kindness and his fighting spirit. I cannot imagine a more tragic loss than to lose a child, and my heart breaks for you.
We have a lovely photograph of Anthony as a young boy that we have used up on our website. May we contnue to use it in his honor? It would be our great privilege to do so.
With love, Anne

Dear Lisa
I remember Anthony with great affection, and the days you spent with him here in LA.
He was not the only one in your family who fought with courage never ending, and I am sure he agrees that you have been the very best mother to him imaginable.
Your unforgettable son was everything you say, you made each other proud.
I wish you the hard earned peace you now deserve
With love

I was almost stumped on what to say- there's not enough words to express how much Anthony is missed by myself and everyone else. He was one of my best friends for over 15 yrs. Some of my best memories are with him. Anthony played a big role in why my son Xavier is on this earth today. He will always hold a big place in my heart and I think about him everyday. It so hard to write and hold back the tears, but I know he would not want any of us to hurt anymore than we have. Anthony was an amazing man and will always be remembered, hearing his laugh in my head keeps a smile on my face. I love you Anthony...always have...always will. Xoxoxo

Anthony-we never met but your mother is THE most amazing person I know. We have grown so close in a short time-and I am so forever grateful to have someone with your Mother's love, strength, and warmth in my life! I never met you Anthony but I know you could have been nothing less than a remarkable man because simply of who your Mom is. Your life will never be in vain-you have touched so many and opened the eyes, hearts, and minds of so many, and your life and your desires will live on and come to fruition through all those whose lives you have touched!

I had known Anthony for years, we would talk for hours and his friendship meant the world to me. He always would say there's nothing in life than wasted talent. I never forgot that and I still remember that to this day. I don't think he ever really understood the impact he had on me, he truely was an amazing person who wore his heart on his sleeve and would give you the shirt off his back with no questions asked. I'm sorry I let you down and that we stopped keeping in touch Anthony. It truely saddens me that I have to write this this way to you but I really hope you're happy where you are and that you never stop smiling. I miss you friend <3

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

The first time Anthony visited us was on Easter 2007 and we were planning to host the Sunday dinner at our house. Somehow the guest list kept growing and we soon had 18 people coming to sit around a 10 place table. Anthony helped us to set up two full dining room tables end to end from the dining room to the living room. As we started to plan how to prepare the meal he casually mentioned that he could cook so before long he was slicing onions, cooking and shucking mussels and doing decorations on the top crust of a huge Easter pie. His easy going style and kitchen talent made an otherwise hectic schedule seem smooth and jovial and the meal was a huge success. We are happy to have these memories and will miss him.

You were my strength when I couldn't find my own, my heart when I just didn't want to care anymore, you were my hero when I heard your words the very last time we spoke. I still feel the same, I wish I could have taken your pain away just so you could've been you again...
I think of you every day, and miss you terribly. I love you so much Anthony, always and forever! xoxo
