I just talked to my Grandson James in North Carolina. He told me about Anthony. Henrietta, I am so sorry, I can't believe this has happened. All my thoughts and prayers are for you and your family. All I can see is his face in that picture that I took when he and James graduated from Crafton Elementary together. They were best friends and James met up with him at Fort Bragg too. Call me it you can,come by the house so we can talk. Rosemary

My family's thoughts and prayers are for the family during this time. I had the pleasure of getting to know Anthony while he was in high school as his recruiter. It was always nice when he would stop by my office just to hang out. He possessed the values of honor, courage and commitment even before he became a Marine. He is an inspiration and hero. God Bless him and your family.
