Anthony today is an anniversary of you going to heaven. God, Jesus and all the angels opened their arms to keep you safe and loved. I remember you telling me Mom don’t cry. I try not too but life with out you makes me cry. I still have bad days but when I have those days l look at your pictures on my phone and I see your smiling face and that makes my tears go away. You are missed by many. You visit me in my dreams and I cherish every dream. I would give anything to see you again. I love you with all my heart and soul. My baby boy
Love Mom ❤❤❤ XOXOXO

Anthony I would trade places with you in a heartbeat if I could. Somedays, I'm just okay others are how can I get through today. Somedays I'm walking somedays I'm crawling just to keep myself moving forward. Somedays I'm in pain somedays the pain is too great for my heart to handle. There is no in-between my feelings. You are missed and loved by so many. Until we are together once again Rest easy knowing that Pops loves you.

As always I love you and miss you so much that I can’t always put how much into words Love, Mom XOXO

Anthony my beloved son,
Someone that you went to high school with saw your picture and told me that you were very liked in high school. Being told that put a smile on my face and I know that you are missed and loved by many friends and loved ones. As for me I can´t put into words how much I miss and love you. Today is 5 years since you passed away and it still feels so real and like it was yesterday. I know that you are in heaven and your safe and sound. That brings me some peace.....
I love you and I miss you that will never end.
Love, Mom

Dear Buddy and Pam.. I am so saddened by the sudden loss of your son. My prayers are with you both. How brave of him to give "the gift of life" to 3 other people. This shows the compassionate human being that he was. May you find comfort in your hearts knowing that he was more than just the ordinary person. He was special and will be missed and loved by everyone who got to share moments of glory with him. Cousin Anita DeFrancesco

Anthony you were my baby and I am trying to understand why this has happened. The only thing that I can understand is that god called you to be with him and when he did that you were able to give the special gift that you had and that is giving 3 people a second chance at life with your organ donation. I love you and miss you my baby. Love Mom xoxoxoxo

Anthony, every time I think of you I am smiling and I am thinking of when you were little and how precocious you were and how you had the habit of scaring me when I least expected, like when you hid in my garbage can from the other kids when they were playing manhunt at night and I came out and there you were after I composed myself we had a good laugh and those times Shelby got out and and I helped you grab her after she exhausted you running around my tree and me too. We laughed over that too and you always remembered and apologized and I always told you forget about it this is not goodbye we will see each other again You're an angel of course you always were see you later
