May loving memories of our dear brother (William Anthony) assist our family and friends to find peace, comfort and strength at this most sorrowful time. We are sharing in sadness as we remember him and navigate through our loss. We pray that his legacy lives on in the hearts and minds of each and everyone. May the angels welcome him into the gates of heaven; and may he rest in peace for evermore.

Do not walk in front of him......he may not follow.
Walk beside him..............so you may be as one."
