Conoci a Antony atravez de mi querida amiga 
Elsa  y si pude contactar lo que mi amiga me describio  un hombre alto,grande  fuerte ,muy guapo.  Pero mas que eso por las veces que comparti  con la familia ,nuestros hijos eran unos nin̈os en ese tiempo, siempre fue muy amable con nosotros  y conviviamos muy bien era muy ocurrente y salia con cada cosa que no parabamos de reirnos era bien burlesco. 
Pero habia algo que admiraba de antony esa capacidad  de hablar o evangelizar no perdia ninguna   oportunidad  a pesar de su condicion . Hoy a partido con el sen̈or y estara muy seguro sonriendo y riendose de alegria  al estar delante de nuestro  amado y unico Dios 
.

Of all the memories of this man, my friend and brother in Christ I can only say that I never saw him without a smile, he always seemed happy to see me and I him. I cant forget his unique laughter and what seemed to be a deep focus on life but his heart was for the Lord and it showed, a little too passionately at times haha but I'll leave that there. All I can say now is my world is sadder without you my friend but one things for sure you're resting in the arms of the Lord with that big handsome Marlon Brando smile on your face.

My Father-in-law was a great person! He was joyfull, kind and loving.  He would always ask us if we were in the word or if we were reading our word, and for that I am very thankful.  We will miss his laughter the most but will always remember the conversation we had. He is with the Lord and we will see him again because that is the hope we have in Jesus Christ our savior.

Though death may sting in the moment, it's the doorway to hope, a hope of a redeemed soul, freed from a corrupted body and broken world.
For those in Christ, there is the promise of a new heaven and new earth, where in glory we are made whole.
Death is a hidden blessing, a quiet mercy, leading us from ruin to renewal, from ashes to light.
And Kai, as your Grandpa Anthony would ask, "How's your walk with the Lord?" Followed by, "The main thing is to be in His Word." Their lives left a legacy far greater than wealth, an example of faith and love.
Grandpa Anthony along with Nana Elsa now rejoice in heaven.

When I first met Anthony, I’ll admit—I was a little intimidated. Tall, strong, and with a voice that could shake a room, he carried a presence that demanded attention. But it didn’t take long to realize that behind that powerful exterior was a heart fully surrendered to the Lord. There was something magnetic about him—once you started talking, the conversation would take off, and inevitably, it would circle back to the things that mattered most: Jesus, the Bible, and faith.

Anthony never missed a chance to ask about my family or whether I was still seeking the Lord through prayer and scripture. And when I said yes, his whole face would light up with that unforgettable smile, and he’d belt out his signature: “RIGHT ON!” That phrase, like his laugh and his “yeee haaa!”, still echoes in my ears.

He was passionate—fiercely passionate—for others to know Jesus Christ. His life was a testimony, a miracle, an answered prayer. And when God gave him a second chance at life, Anthony didn’t waste it. He loved the Lord even more deeply, walked even more boldly, and inspired even more people with his joy and conviction.

Anthony was a soldier of faith. His legacy lives on in every soul he touched, every prayer he lifted, and every moment he pointed others to Christ. I’ll miss him dearly—but I rejoice knowing he’s now in glory, face to face with the One he loved most.

See you in heaven, soldier.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”  
—2 Timothy 4:7

Aside from being a great dad, he was a man of God and made sure his kids followed him in that area.  Always wanting to spread the gospel and present Jesus any way he knew how.  I wouldn't of wanted to inherit anything but to know Christ and my dad was a vessel used to give that to me. I love him and thank him for that. God gave us two parents who loved the Lord.

My dad was a God fearing, fun, loving man! I love you so much dad! The boys say they will miss your voice and contagious laughter. I am eternally greatful for him being instrumental in leading my brother and I in the ways of the Lord. And thus our children are growing in the same manner. 

I believe my dad lived with eternity in mind and now he is in the eternal presence and arms of our heavenly father! 

He never missed an opportunity to ask "Do you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ?"  So I ask you, do you? Because we are all sinner and have fallen short of the glory of God. The amazing news is that God is faithful to forgive, if we believe in Him and believe we need forgiveness. 

Thank you God for the man you gave me to call dad!
