It has been 18 years since you left us, but the memories we have of you will keep you forever in our minds and hearts, never to be forgotten. We always smile and laugh when speak about you and we always will. Your boys have grown up to be strong, respectful and honest men, you would be very proud of them and the way Maureen has raised them. Until we meet again, we love you lots and lots. XOXOXOXOXO Michael, Lynda, Kristina & Michelle Collins

Wow can’t believe it’s been 15 years since you’re gone. I think we were 15 when we met. I remember you like it was yesterday. I can still hear your laugh so vividly, maybe because you were always joking and making me laugh. I’ll never forget you. RIP Anthony XO

I remember meeting Anthony for the first time when I was little. I was really glad that Michael was dating Lynda cause that meant I could hang out with Anthony. He had some sense of humor. I am going to miss him with all my heart. He is in my thoughts and prayers everyday. Love to all the DelVecchio family.

Anthony...What does an older sister do when her baby brother dies? It's not suppose to be that way. My heart is broken. You were always there to support anyone that needed you, sometimes it was only by making them smile, or a simple "WHO LOVES YA" and everything seemed not so bad. I'll always remember the great times we had at Fire Island, you were most relaxed when you were there. Now you can be relaxed and happy in heaven, there are no more deamons to fight. Iwill miss you and I love you. Kim

Behavior is defined as the sum of responses to stimuli, both internal and external, coordinated by the nervous and endocrine systems, and manifested in the interactions of the skeletal and muscular systems. Learning is defined as a change in behavior due to life experience. Although we may not know it, it is the people in our lives that shape who we are, however large or small a role we may feel they play. While we all face an inevitable fate, and memories may fade into oblivion, our personalities-our behavior-is forever changed by those around us. Uncle Anthony and I lived together for some of the most impressionable years of my life. You couldn't call yourself my friend if you didn't have a ball-busting nickname dubbed by Uncle Tony. Uncle Anthony, you have touched more people in your short and punctuated life than you may ever realize. For those you touched the most, my family, my friends, our behavior is a result of your influence, and it will forever be a part of us. There in lies eternity. We love you, and I love you, and thank you for helping make me who I am.

I love you and miss you
