My husband was taken too soon from me. We had so many dreams. My husband was a great man. People did not understand him but I did. That is why we were made for each other. Anthony was my soul mate and he always will be. I was his life, his love, his lady. I was the one for him, and he was my one. I will always love you. There will not be another. I will see you in heaven. You are taking a part of me with you. And we will be together again soon. My love Anthony, Your Wife. A service celebrating Anthony's life will be held in the chapel of B.C.
