Liz, Keith, Megan and families, we are so sorry to hear about Anthony...We have many great memories as our sons had some fun times while growing up down the road from each other. Like trick or treating together. Having Santa come visit them at the house and when you would dropped of Anthony in the mornings before school, he always had to have cinnamon toast, even though he just had breakfast at his house! Then Jack and Anthony would get on the school bus. Oh such sweet memories. You keep all your memories close to your heart and recall them often. We love you.....
