*Anthony Thomas Jensen*
**The reason it hurts so much to be separated from you is because our souls are connected**
I love you so much! I miss you even more, if that is possible!
I cherish all of our memories, and will hold them dear to me and always have them in my heart! You were an amazing, caring, and warm person and helped me though a lot of things in my life. I could count on you at any time for anything, and shared secrets with you I could not share with others.You never judged me, and always loved me and were there for me no matter what. We shared a bond and a closeness I have not found with another!
I hope that you are looking out for us now, as so many of us are hurting from losing you!
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER BABY!

I was so sorry to hear of Tony's passing. Though it has been some time since he was a student of mine here at Sycamore Middle School, I remember him as a decent young man who tried his best at things.
All my best wishes,

Tony was and will always be one of the students that touched my life in so many ways. 11 years ago I started at SHS and he was my first student to walk through the door. We spent a lot of time laughing, crying, and learning together.... I am a better teacher and person because I knew Tony. RIP sweet boy... Mrs. Sue Purdom
