I haven't been able to say anything just yet... But, here it goes.... Tony you were my brother and despite all the drama I still loved you. You always made me laugh and you knew you could always depend on me. You and I have been through a lot with all the troubles life has brought us. What gives me comfort is that you are in heaven now and you are with our Mom…. I know you are looking down on us and everything is going to be ok. I just wish you didn’t have to go just yet. I wish we had more time to grow… we were starting to grow closer as brother and sisters. Well, I am here and I will do my best to look after your family you left behind. I love you brother…I miss you like crazy! Rest in peace!

NOT ONLY MY COUSIN BUT MY BROTHER AND I LOVE U SO MUCH, AND SO DO ANGEL AND ANTHONY. IT DOESNT SEEM REAL YET THOUGH....LIKE HOW IT GOES, DONT HEAR FROM U IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THEN U COME AROUND AGAIN. EXCEPT THIS TIME WE WONT HEAR FROM U AGAIN BUT WE KNOW WHERE U ARE THOUGH. SAFE IN HEAVEN. AND I KNOW U WILL BE WATCHIN OVER ME AND THE BOYS....I LOVE YOU TONY BOLOGNA...

Hey Tony, Look at you walk on the streets of gold. I can see you now smiling from ear to ear. I cant say Im sad because God took you home think about it "dude" you are in a place that everybody we know trying to get to. Just remeber one thing you dont have to listen to noobody mouth now. Now you can rest an let god show you the way to have a good time in peace. I remeber when you was at my granny house sometimes just sitting thier trying to block your stress. I would ask you " What's wrong?" Your reply was " Weewee dont nobody ever asking me that question" I told you God had everything work out." Sometime most people are just thinking about thier own problems not really looking at your face an seening something wrong with you. I can say I know everybody that you did get to talk too about thier problems will still need your ear and your girls will need for you to be that great Angle that sit by thier bed side. This is not the end my friend you back at home were you came from. Now you can chill an keep smiling like you do. Because when we stop an think about you won the race. I will miss that goofy smiling dont forget about us. From the Woods an Galloway famliy " RIP Tony tha Dude*****

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 o'er.
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.
