Although, I didn´t know, Anthony long he was a joy to be around and being a marine he was the backbone of the military as he has the backbone of his family. He was a joy to be around him, and he is a brother to me because I was in the Navy. May God bless his family and loved ones for their loss, but it will be a joy to be reunited with all our loved ones in heaven.
Love and Respect Morris & Elva Rich

Soft prayers for you Anthony may you rest in peace, my old friend from back in the 60's. Friend from R. D. Cook Street School. The fastest boy in the school. Good memories we were city champions in flag football of all the elementary schools in town. We lived a few houses around the corner from each other. My condolences to all his family members & friends that shared his love and friendship. Que dios te bendiga

My Condolences to All the Santos families. He was that guy in high school who you could always count on bringing some laughter and positivity to the day. Hanging out with Santos on a Friday or the weekend built memories to last many years. Got to spend a few minutes with him a few weeks ago and got to shoot the breeze with him and a couple of other classmates and reminiscence some old stories. Didn't get to see him much after he moved to Bakersfield but whenever he was in town he was always the first to comment when he saw me. Gonna miss you Anthony, rest in peace my brother...
