22 Mar 2020When I met Anthony at ATS on Bijou he was only 20 yrs old….he was on a smoke break outside and I was waiting for my ride…a guy walked up to him and started talking to Anthony in Spanish like he was an old friend..the guy walked away and Anthony said,” I have no idea what he just said…..but that happens to me all the time.” We laughed and I said, “ you must have a great quality about you….”. We were friends ever since… Anthony was one of those people that brings out the best in you,..I’m so glad I got to tell him that before he died… he will always be Uncle Tony to my kids, they loved him dearly. I will miss him so…

26 Mar 2020I worked with Anthony at CCL for many years. He always stopped to say hello and give me a hug when he was in Greensboro or when I visited Colorado. I’ll always remember his smile, zest for life, and of course, his sass. He was a dear, dear friend and I will miss him greatly. Sending love and light to all of his friends and family, especially his husband.

2 May 2020Just the other day I was thinking about you and Matthias. I don’t think I have ever laughed so hard in all my life as the day you both introduced me to Lady Gaga!… Born This Way came on and we were dancing … I couldn’t contain myself!! So fun! You and Matthias have always been so good to me, I will always remember that you treated me like family, even through my stress. I will always remember what a good person you were. Rest In Peace Anthony ❤️?

8 May 2020I worked with Anthony in Sydney from 1999 to 2004 where we became good friends. We lost touch when he moved back to Colorado Springs. I am so sorry to hear about his passing. He was a special person. We need more Anthony’s, not less. My sincere condolences to his family at this difficult time.

4 Feb 2021I can’t believe it’s been almost a year. I’ve missed my friend and I hate I didn’t say goodbye. Think about you everyday. If I could go back to July 7 2017 I would. Never will you leave my heart my friend.
