    My most sincere thoughts and prayers to Anthony's family especially Andrew, their mom, his kids, and his wife. I knew Anthony in high school and he was just a cool cat. May the peace of The Lord be with you all.

    As the Godmother of Anthony's daughter Rosalyn, I cannot express how sad I am to learn of Anthony's passing. Every time we spoke, he expressed concern and love for both Rosalyn and Mason. He always wanted what was best for them and always tried to do the right thing, even if he wasn't sure what that was. He was a voice of reason in their lives. I will do my best to talk about their father to them on a regular basis. I will tell them what a wonderful, kind hearted person he was and remind them how much he cared for them and loved them. God bless you Anthony. May your spirit live on forever and ever. You were one of the kind ones and it feels like you left us too soon. You are in God's hands in heaven now and we can rest in knowing that. My condolences to the entire Conover family.
