Our family would like to thank each and every one of you for your kind words and support. It is certain that Anthony has touched all of your hearts and affected your lives in a positive way. There aren’t enough words to describe how special he is, and how devastating this loss is for all of us. He was a loving son, father, husband, brother, uncle, cousin, friend and coach. Although his family and friends meant the world to him, it didn’t matter who you were, all you had to do was ask and he’d come running. There isn’t a more perfect person to be watching over all of us, and we are all so grateful for the time we had with him. Anthony would often joke with his wife Jamie that she hit the lottery by marrying him; I think we all did just by knowing him. I would like to share some feelings from my family:
-Miranda McAnulty (niece)

Anthony was my beautiful boy. No one could ever fill the hole in my heart. We had a special bond that no one could understand. I loved him with all of my heart and soul. I can’t imagine my life without him, but I will forever be grateful for him being my son.
-Mom

If I could have gone to heaven and chosen a son, it would have been Anthony.
-Fred (Dad)

My brother, one of my first friends, adversaries, my idol. No one was ever a stranger to my brother. Everyone that he ever met loved him. Truthfully you could search high and low and never find anyone as special as he was. I love him with my whole heart and I will miss him forever.
-Audry (sister)

He was my heart.
-Zoe (sister)

Anthony meant the world to me. He was my big brother, and protector. You can’t imagine how much I miss him.
-Justine (sister)

Anthony meant so much to me. He was always kind and loving to everyone. He was always putting others before himself and he was very helpful. He was a role model for everyone to follow.
-Hadley (neice)

My best memories of Anthony come from the Christmas and New Year’s parties he would host. You would never see him without a smile on his face, and I always had so much fun with him. Whether it was at the waterpark, in Hershey, New York, Charleston, or any other place we’ve created memories as a family. Ill miss him calling me “Slim-Aidy” as much as I thought I hated hearing that nick-name.
-Aidan (nephew)

Ill always remember picking up the phone when Anthony was calling Annie and teasing him until Annie would take the phone from me. He was really funny and always made me laugh.
-Faith(niece)

Anthony was the best uncle I could have ever asked for. He has done more for me than anyone could ever imagine. I will miss him more than anything.
-Brynn (niece)
