I can’t believe my co-worker is gone (Coca-Cola). He could always make me laugh and was a super great guy. Anthony would help anyone out. Rest in peace.
Anthony was a good man I’m going to miss him very much. My name is Mike Smith and I worked with him at Coca-Cola on the Night Shift for three years. He always helped me when I needed help and I always helped him when he needed help. He was fun to be around, and always had a good joke to tell Anthony had a big hart for everyone and never one time he got mad about anything. He was happy and easy-going. I always loved Anthony like a brother. He was a good man. I’m gonna miss him very much.
My Brother, whom I love
