Anthony has a beautiful spirit for serving, helping people and just lending an ear for those who needed to talk. He had a love for his family, friends, and people. Anthony never met a stranger and had a smile that was very contagious. He was a lover of all types of music and loved being a D.J. and cooking. His favorite love was taking care of his loving wife and he did not mind letting people know that she was his "Pride and Joy".

member of the Male Chorus and Usher Board.
