I had the pleasure of getting to know Anthony when I was at Pearland Junior
I had the pleasure of getting to know Anthony when I was a first year teacher at Pearland Junior High West. Anthony would come by my room in the mornings and we both loved to talk about Star Wars. He also came by my room for our Fellowship of Christian Athlete meetings, and we both liked to talk about God. He was a polite, intelligent young man, and I thoroughly enjoyed his company. Through Facebook we reconnected again, and I saw him transform into an amazing young man. I was so happy to see him doing well with his martial arts business, and I was so happy to see him as a happily married man and as a loving father. I was so proud to see him giving back to his community by serving as a RISE mentor. He will be greatly missed. May God grant unto him eternal peace, and may he bless his grieving family.
I am proud to have been Anthony’s third grade teacher at Mark Twain Primary in Alvin ISD and to have witnessed him become the successful man, father, and human being he became.
Although he will be missed by all of us here, we can all be comforted in knowing an angel has ascended into heaven.
RIP Anthony.
Anthony, thank you for the opportunity to have known you.. you showed me a few things. How to always smile and to me kind.. I’ll miss you, little bro. Much love
I remember Anthony coming to work with his mom, Lisa. He always seemed to find his way to my class. I always laughed at him with that little toothy grin and red hair. I always teased him and called him “my lil Marvin Redpost” after a red haired character in one of my children’s books. His smile and curious nature were always welcomed in my 2nd grade classroom. Through Facebook we were able to reconnect and I enjoyed watching him grow…professionally, physically, and spiritually. I always knew that he was destined to leave an indelible mark on the world. I just didn’t know that he would leave all of us so soon. I was so sorry to hear of his passing, but I thank GOD for that little dash between his “sunrise and sunset”. That little bitty seemingly insignificant dash…represents the sum of his whole being and time spent here on earth. May GOD grant him eternal rest and peace. Love you lil Big Guy!
I’m so deeply sorry for your loss.
He was an amazing human being and a wonderful teacher, he was so good with the kids.
RIP Coach Anthony
