Anthony knew he had my gratitude for being such a good friend to my husband Bruce through all those many years since their youth. I still love hearing all the stories and feel grateful for having known him; he made me smile. My heart goes out to you, Michelle and Laura, for the loss you feel. May happy memories come to mind, make you smile, and give you comfort. How wonderful it is to be able to look forward to the time when, “There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous” (Acts 24:15), where we can enjoy an earth where, “The tent of God is with mankind...And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning for outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” (Revelation 21:3-5) There have never been any tears, death, pain, nor sadness in heaven, so it must mean here on earth—a very happy hope to hold on to and gain some comfort. Your family has my heartfelt sympathy and will be in my prayers. Anthony will be truly missed; it is hard to know he is gone but so good to have memories to reflect on and gently smile.--With my very deepest condolences, Debra Iacouzze
