See u are missed already and I hope your Mom, Wife, Children and Family will get stronger each day. God Bless U all.

My Dear Beverly and Family,
Words cannot convey how you're feeling at this point in time. Only "His Loving Kindness" can calm the storm in each of your broken hearts. Our "Bread of Life", has that Healing Magic that soothes the soul.
While parents aren't suppose to bury their children, it's happening anyway, and all we can do is THANK THE LORD for allowing us the time we'd shared on earth. We know that we're going to re-unite when HE RETURN AGAIN.
You are a family that is loved by many, and prayers will see you through this sorrowful time in your lives.
Hold on to one another, pray together,
remember all of the wonderful, happy, and loving moments that was shared by and with Anthony.
All of our Heavenly Father's blessings to you Beverly and to the family. I love you very much, and know that you can lean on me ANY TIME. Call me, and it's a done deal!!
Take very gteat care of one another.
With much love,

To the Mink Family,
I remember the Minks from Martin Street. They lived across the street from us(Nikki, Raynette,Shelley and Connie).I often reflect back to Martin Street days with a smile. It warms my heart when I think of the times and the friends from then compared to now.
When everyone played friendly and safely.
Family, May you please find comfort and strength in knowing that God does love you and will never forsake you.
Your sorrows and tears will ease and become overjoyed with the loving memories of Anthony that will make you smile.
God's best blessing to you all.

To Ms. Beverly and April
I would like to extend my condolences to your family as Anthony is now in a deep sleep, because as long as you have breath he will always be a part of you. It has been years since I have run into all of you, but one thing that I can say is that he loved his family, Blanche I have never met you but my heart felt prayers go out to you as Anthony was a good person. When my son told me of his passing I was like wow it brung me back to when we were kids and Ms. Beverly and my mother would walk us to school you really get a flash back when someone you have know so long is no-longer here. My prayer goes out to his children as well as grandchildren rest in the arms of the Lord for HE is the only one who can give you peace.

Dear Shima and Family,
I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love. However, death leaves a heartache no one can heal, but love leaves a memory no one can steal.
Love your cousin Tasha
